Description

Is this a new feature, an improvement, or a change to existing functionality?

New Feature

How would you describe the priority of this feature request

Significant improvement

Please provide a clear description of problem this feature solves

The NV-Ingest cli client displays a progress bar that shows real time ingestion progress in terms of files ingested along with metrics like time per file and pages per second when performing ingestion jobs. We now have the ability to ingest multiple files at a time with the python client, but it doesn't display progress like the cli. This becomes an issue for large jobs where it's hard to determine the job's progress.

Describe the feature, and optionally a solution or implementation and any alternatives

I would like for the python client to display similar progress information as the cli when performing multi file ingestion jobs.

Research direction

No files, tests, or entry points are named. Start by locating the Python client's multi-file ingestion path and comparing it with the CLI's existing progress display; done means large multi-file jobs show ingestion progress, time per file, and pages per second.
