Description

As part of ​DEP 14, this ticket adds a generic Task interface, allowing enqueueing background tasks. Specifically:

  • Common API interface
  • Base backend
  • Task / result classes
  • Immediate / Dummy backends

These features already exist in ​django-tasks, but need to make their way into Django core.

The database backend is intentionally absent, but will be added in a future ticket. This makes the PR significantly smaller, and easier to review.

Hey Jake, great.

You can’t accept your own ticket, but I’ll *pretend do that* now. ✅

We might need a new Tasks component for Trac. 😅

In b931156:

Refs #35859 -- Removed support for Task enqueuing on transaction commit.

This removes the ability to configure Task enqueueing via a setting,
since the proposed ENQUEUE_ON_COMMIT did not support multi-database
setups.

Thanks to Simon Charette for the report.
