📦 First Job

A Job is a request to execute an Action.

You create a Job by enqueueing it.

---

Enqueue a Job

await wjb.EnqueueAsync("greet", "Alice");

What this does

• "greet" — the action key we registered earlier
• "Alice" — the input that will be passed to the Action

The job is now stored and waiting to be executed.

---

Run the Job

await wjb.ExecuteOnceAsync();

This tells the worker to:

1. Take the next available job 2. Execute the corresponding Action 3. Save the result

---

Full example

using WJb;
public sealed class GreetAction : JobAction<string>
{
    public override Task<IActionResult> ExecuteAsync(
        string name, CancellationToken ct)
    {
        Console.WriteLine($"Hello, {name}!");
        return CompleteAsync();
    }
}
var store = new InMemoryStore();
var wjb = WJbBuilder.Create(store, cfg =>
    {
        cfg.AddAction<GreetAction>("greet");
    })
    .Build(store);
// Create the job
await wjb.EnqueueAsync("greet", "Alice");
// Execute it
await wjb.ExecuteOnceAsync();

What just happened?

1. We created a Job for the greet Action. 2. We passed "Alice" as input. 3. The worker executed the Action. 4. The Action printed the message and completed.
