jobPromise.cancel() gets clobbered for jobs with timeouts and promises that aren't native Promises

Created by: cincodenada

Description

There are a couple situations where calling jobPromise.cancel() in the active event callback doesn't work:

  • If the job returns a promise that is not a native Promise (e.g. if using Bluebird or another cancelable promise library)
  • If the job is given a timeout

Minimal, Working Test code to reproduce the issue.

const Queue = require('bull')
const delay = require('delay')
const Bluebird = require('bluebird')
Bluebird.config({ cancellation: true })

// A simple demo processor that runs for `jobData.delay` milliseconds
// It provides a cancelable promise, and stops processing early if canceled
async function tickProgress (job, state) {
  for (let i = 0; i < 10; i++) {
    if (state.canceled) {
      console.log('Job canceled!')
      return
    }
    job.progress(i * 10)
    await delay(job.data.delay / 10)
  }
  job.progress(100)
}

function bluebirdProcessor (job) {
  return new Bluebird((resolve, reject, onCancel) => {
    const state = { canceled: false }
    onCancel(() => { state.canceled = true })
    tickProgress(job, state).then(resolve).catch(reject)
  })
}

function nativeProcessor (job) {
  const state = { canceled: false }
  const promise = tickProgress(job, state)
  promise.cancel = function () { state.canceled = true }
  return promise
}

// replace with nativeProcessor to un-break it
const processor = bluebirdProcessor

;(async () => {
  // Demonstrating that cancel works fine without the queue...
  console.log('Running job processor outside of queue...')
  const jobPromise = processor({
    data: { delay: 5000 },
    progress: progress => console.log('Progress:', progress)
  })
  // Wait a bit...
  await delay(2000)
  // Cancel
  jobPromise.cancel()
  // Wait for it to see the cancellation
  await delay(500)

  // Cancel does not work when wrapped in a queue job
  const queue = new Queue('test')
  queue.process(processor)
  queue.on('error', async (error) => {
    console.log('Queue error:', error)
  })
  queue.on('progress', function (job, progress) {
    console.log('Progress at', progress)
  })
  queue.on('completed', async (job, result) => {
    queue.close()
  })

  // When a job starts, wait 3.5 seconds and then attempt to cancel it
  queue.on('active', async (job, jobPromise) => {
    console.log('Job started:', jobPromise)
    await delay(2000)
    console.log('Attempting to cancel...')
    jobPromise.cancel()
  })

  // Start the job
  console.log('Adding job...')
  queue.add({ delay: 5000 }, {
    // And uncomment this to break it even with native promises
    // timeout: 10000
  })
})()
