Send SIGTERM after SIGINT
See original GitHub issueHi again!!!
Usually, when we want to kill a process, we’ll first try to gracefully kill it. If it refuses to die, we may send another signal to force it to die.
Currently in huey, if we send a SIGINT to consumer, it’ll set the stop flag and try to join the workers. If the workers refuse to die, the consumer has no choice but to wait. If we send another SIGTERM to consumer, it won’t work because the corresponding signal handler only sets some variables. There doesn’t seem to be a way to tell the consumer to not wait anymore and the second SIGTERM signal may be meaningless.
I think it’ll be useful if huey provides the option that users can first try to gracefully kill the consumer, and also ungracefully kill the consumer if it won’t die.

Pushed 2.1.3 with this change.
Ah, I guess it is behaving differently with processes than when using threads. I just made a test of using TERM with a blocked worker and indeed – the worker does not shut down immediately. Let me look into it.
