Custom Job Filter attribute is not working if it is annotated at the class or method

[iamSathishMohan]

When the custom job filter attribute is not working when it is annotated at the class or method. It works only when registered as Global job filter.

Replication Steps:

1. Create LogEverythingAttribute Custom job filter as documented in https://docs.hangfire.io/en/latest/extensibility/using-job-filters.html
2. Create LongJob as given below

[LogEverything]
 public class LongJob
 {
     public void Execute()
     {
         Console.WriteLine("LongJob Started at {0}", DateTime.UtcNow.ToLongDateString());
         Task.Delay(6 * 60 * 1000).GetAwaiter().GetResult();
         Console.WriteLine("LongJob Finished at {0}", DateTime.UtcNow.ToLongDateString());
     }
 }

3. Configure jobs using Configure jobs

public class ConfigureJobs(IConfiguration configuration, IRecurringJobManager manager, ILogger<ConfigureJobs> logger) : BackgroundService
{
    private readonly IConfiguration _configuration = configuration;
    private readonly IRecurringJobManager _manager = manager;
    private readonly ILogger<ConfigureJobs> _logger = logger;

    protected override Task ExecuteAsync(CancellationToken stoppingToken)
    {
        try
        {
            var jobOptions = new DynamicRecurringJobOptions
            {
                QueueName = "scheduler", 
                MisfireHandling = MisfireHandlingMode.Ignorable,
            };

            _manager.AddOrUpdateDynamic<LongJob>("LongJob", "scheduler", x => x.Execute(), "*/15 * * * * ?", jobOptions);
        }
        catch (Exception ex)
        {
            _logger.LogError(ex, "An exception occurred while creating recurring jobs.");
        }

        return Task.CompletedTask;
    }
}

4. Register the scheduler

builder.Services.AddHostedService<ConfigureJobs>();

builder.Services.AddHangfire(configuration => configuration
                            .SetDataCompatibilityLevel(CompatibilityLevel.Version_180)
                            .UseSimpleAssemblyNameTypeSerializer()
                            .UseRecommendedSerializerSettings()
                            .UseFilter(new AutomaticRetryAttribute { Attempts = 0 })
                            .UseInMemoryStorage(new InMemoryStorageOptions
                            {
                                IdType = InMemoryStorageIdType.Long,
                                StringComparer = StringComparer.InvariantCultureIgnoreCase // Default value, case-sensitive.
                            }));

builder.Services.AddHangfireServer(opts =>
{
    opts.WorkerCount = Environment.ProcessorCount * 5;
    opts.ServerName = "Test Scheduler";
    opts.Queues = ["scheduler"];
    opts.StopTimeout = TimeSpan.FromMinutes(3);
    opts.ShutdownTimeout = TimeSpan.FromMinutes(3);
});

only works when the attribute is registered as Global filter using .UseFilter(new LogEverythingAttribute())
