Jobs are currently in-process background threads, so will exit when exiting the current Nushell process. There’s plans for job dispatching though. In the meantime, the nu_scripts repo has a
task
module that usespueue
to handle such cases.I think that’s fine; I don’t usually orphan background jobs, but I do relatively often have reason to have them while I do something else. And relying on
pueue
for more complex uses seems more than reasonable.
