✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

so gearman_worker_options() hands you back the gearman_worker_options_t for a gearman_worker_st. that's the vibe check on what options are currently on 🫶

want to turn stuff on? that's gearman_worker_add_options(). want to turn stuff off? that's gearman_worker_remove_options() — the icon herself, the one this whole page is named after 👑

the options that are currently supported are, and I'm quoting the source here, literally the whole list:

• Enable non-block IO for the worker. — that's it, that's the description. this one doesn't get a name typed out in the original text, it just shows up as a lone description line. iconic behaviour honestly 🙈
• type GEARMAN_WORKER_GRAB_UNIQ — only grab jobs that have been assigned unique values 💅 super useful for workers who only want to worker with background jobs 🦋 (yes, "worker with", that's what it says, I'm not touching it)
• type GEARMAN_WORKER_TIMEOUT_RETURN — has a return timeout been set for the worker? that's the whole question, bestie ⏰

⭐ RETURN VALUE ⭐

Various. that's the entire answer, no further comment, slay I guess 💅
