# Background Tasks

You can define background tasks to be run *after* returning a response.

This is useful for operations that need to happen after a request, but that the client doesn't really have to be waiting for the operation to complete before receiving the response.

This includes, for example:

* Email notifications sent after performing an action:

Quentin Takeda <******@****.***> 1730111391 +0100

  </a>

## 🐘 **Gradle Build Tool** 

Most tasks that are used to build Gradle support the configuration cache, but some don't. For example, building the documentation currently requires you to disable the configuration cache.

To disable the configuration cache, run the build with `--no-configuration-cache`.

Tasks known to have problems are listed in the build logic. You can find this list at:

		task.opts = *source.opts
	} else {
		task.opts.ScanMode = madmin.HealNormalScan
	}

	h.countScanned(healType)

	if source.noWait {
		select {
		case globalBackgroundHealRoutine.tasks <- task:
			if serverDebugLog {
				fmt.Printf("Task in the queue: %#v\n", task)
			}
		default:
			// task queue is full, no more workers, we shall move on and heal later.
			return nil
		}

    end
    operation ->> client: Return response to client
    Note over client,operation: Response is already sent, can't change it anymore
    opt Tasks
        operation -->> tasks: Send background tasks
    end
    opt Raise other exception
        tasks -->> dep: Raise other exception
    end
    Note over dep: After yield
    opt Handle other exception
