Description

What would be the best approach to handle a repeating (in my case delayed) job with Kue. Would it be best to setup a job once and use the queue "job complete" event search for the ID of the job, check the type and re-schedule or is there a better way?

Many thanks.

Research direction

The issue names no files or tests. Start by reviewing Kue's "job complete" event and delayed-job scheduling behavior, then determine whether recurring jobs are supported; done requires a clearly defined approach or implementation scope for rescheduling a job by ID and type.
