Support for Drupal 7 is ending on 5 January 2025—it’s time to migrate to Drupal 10! Learn about the many benefits of Drupal 10 and find migration tools in our resource center.I've struggled with getting Aegir tests to run easily locally and on Travis because there is a battle between the hosting-queued command and behat running drush hosting-tasks directly.
I've figured out how to let hosting-queued command "pause" and unpause by checking for a variable.
On each while loop, we check a variable before loading and running tasks.
If the state changes, it shows a message: "Hosting Queued has been paused." "Hosting Queued has been unpaused."
This will allow much easier local aegir development and testing, as well provides us an easy way to stop a running queue daemon.
I don't know if we need a Settings UI for pausing the queue or not. A drush "variable_set" works for now.

Jon PughScreenshot above shows hosting queued logs output showing pausing and unpausing, along with the new checkbox on the hosting queued settings page.

colanI didn't test it, but it's a great idea and the code looks good.

Jon PughWe might want to add some message to the tasks logs and node page.
I know when I see a task not runningi think something is wrong with the system.
