Outline a mechanism for polling the status of sub objects like invitations #90
Description
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
This issue is related more from a need that I have recently had. While implementing custom workflows for issuing credentials either:
- when the customer is using say single sign on and does not see the invitation emails
- invitation emails are sent to the user but the completely ignore accepting an invitation for a mobile credential
in both instances the mobile credential is consumed on the server but isn't actually in use by a user.
In many of these instances you would want the middleware system to be notified of the status of these objects. At the moment I am scheduling tasks that allow me to poll a status of these objects and deploy application specific solutions.
Describe the solution you'd like
The proposal here is to outline a formal way that the library allows us to track these items and call back and update the application layer.
I am aware that this might mean that the library has dependencies on something like celery which you wouldn't want to impose as there are other libraries like taskiq that are also in wide use.
The solution could end up being some recipes that we make available as part of the documentation?
Describe alternatives you've considered
As mentioned in the initial description that I have an application level solution that uses celery based queues.
Additional context
This may be way too application specific for us to come up with a generic solution. This ticket is for us to explore the idea.
