Checking state of a background Job

[ekid125]

Hi Everyone!

I have a question about Background Jobs. For instance in the asynchronous example "gearman_example_client.py", the worker continues to work on the jobs after the applications already exits.

Now I want not to exit the application. Instead I want to continuously (for example once every second) check and wait if a result from a job is available. So is there a way to ask django-gearman about the state of a job using something like a job handle or job name?

Thank you very much!

Note: I want to create a web server where our colleagues can initiate calculations as workers, which are managed by a gearman server. The result of these calculations will then be visualized on the web server as soon as they are done by the workers.
