Is there a way to set Horizon's timeout on a job class ?

I'm refactoring a class that records a (predefined length of) an audio stream using Symfony process and an OS executable file.

The way it used to work was the job was sent on a regular redis queue, and timeout would be set on the symfony process, effectively making the job run for the time it needed.

Now we want to send the job on a Horizon queue. The timeout is still set on the process, but Horizon's config has its own timeout value in the config. The problem is that the length of the recording will vary from case to case, with an average being 60 minutes, but we do have cases doing for multiple hours.

I could set it up to a very (very) long timeout, but I find it counterintuitive. Isn't there a way that I could specify the value for timeout on a job ? Otherwise, is setting a humongously long timeout the only logical way to do this ? submitted by /u/CouldHaveBeenAPun
