When I add a queue, I give it an unique name, like longprocess-{id}-{timestamp}. ID is the id in the database for that entry to work, and the timestamp ensure I don't have colliding names in the queue. The issue is that the user can stop/resume the longprocess if he wants, so in the stop request, I'd like to list all tasks that starts with longporcess-1 (for {id} = 1), and stop all of them (expected 1 entry). I can target a task with : q = taskqueue.Queue('longprocess') q.delete_tasks(taskqueue.Task(name='longprocess-{0}'.format(longprocess.id,))) But of course, this doesn't work because the name is incorrect (missing it's -{timestamp} part). Is there something like a q.search('longprocess-1-*') that I would loop over and delete ? Continue reading...
