pueue add

Enqueue a task for execution.

• Add any command to the default queue:

pueue add {command}

• Pass a list of flags or arguments to a command when enqueuing:

pueue add -- {command --arg -f}

• Add a command but do not start it if it's the first in a queue:

pueue add --stashed -- {rsync --archive --compress /local/directory /remote/directory}

• Add a command to a group and start it immediately, see `pueue group` to manage groups:

pueue add --immediate --group "{CPU_intensive}" -- {ffmpeg -i input.mp4 frame_%d.png}

• Add a command and start it after commands 9 and 12 finish successfully:

pueue add --after {9} {12} --group "{torrents}" -- {transmission-cli torrent_file.torrent}

• Add a command with a label after some delay has passed, see `pueue enqueue` for valid datetime formats:

pueue add --label "{compressing large file}" --delay "{wednesday 10:30pm}" -- "{7z a compressed_file.7z large_file.xml}"
