How to use background tasks with Starlette when there's no background object?

I'm hoping to avoid any use of Celery at the moment. In Starlette's docs they give two ways to add background tasks:

Via Graphene: https://www.starlette.io/graphql/

class Query(graphene.ObjectType):
    user_agent = graphene.String()

    def resolve_user_agent(self, info):
        """
        Return the User-Agent of the incoming request.
        """
        user_agent = request.headers.get("User-Agent", "<unknown>")
        background = info.context["background"]
        background.add_task(log_user_agent, user_agent=user_agent)
        return user_agent

Via a JSON response: https://www.starlette.io/background/

async def signup(request):
    data = await request.json()
    username = data['username']
    email = data['email']
    task = BackgroundTask(send_welcome_email, to_address=email)
    message = {'status': 'Signup successful'}
    return JSONResponse(message, background=task)

Does anyone know of a way to add tasks to Starlette's background with Ariadne? I am unable to return a JSONResponse in my resolver, and I do not have access to a info.context["background"]. The only thing I have attached to my context is my request object.

The above which is marked as a solution does not work for me since BackgroundTask does not work properly when you use a middleware that subclasses BaseHTTPMiddleware see here:

https://github.com/encode/starlette/issues/919

In my case basically the task is not ran in the background and it is awaited to be completed, also I am not using Ariadne, but this should let you do the job and run a task in the background

Edit: This worked for me.

executor = ProcessPoolExecutor()

main.executor.submit(
bg_process_funcs,
export_file_format,
export_headers,
data,
alert_type,
floor_subtitle,
date_subtitle,
pref_datetime,
pref_timezone,
export_file_name,
export_limit,)

executor.shutdown()
logger.info("Process Pool Shutdown")
