JarCastingtaboola-cronyx - Job scheduling framework
this framwork is used in taboola, its a Job scheduling framework that is based on quartz and spring. its main advantages are:
- easy and quick start.
- rest api support.
- manage your triggers through easy to use cli shell.
- extended quartz capabilities / features. e.g - chain triggers (fan-in support), history of each execution, auto retry, and more.
**Requires JDK 1.8 or higher
how do you run it? to make it easy - we included an example of a service based on spring-boot(under taboola-cronyx-server-exmaple). to run it execute the CronyxService main class. then ssh into the shell by running ssh user@localhost -p 2000, password pass. in the shell you have different commands to manage your jobs / triggers just write "job -h" or "trigger -h" and see all the different options. e.g - execute a trigger by running - trigger now -n <triggerGroup.triggerName> <jobGroup.jobName>
how do i add a job? just follow the helloWorld example - add a class under the job bundle package with the @job annotation , give it a group and a name - e.g @Job(group = "example", name = "HelloWorld") , and add a method with @JobMethod annotation.
how do i add a cron trigger? ssh into the shell and run - trigger cron <triggerGroup.triggerName> <jobGroup.jobName> "", e.g trigger cron example.runEveryMinute example.HelloWorld "0 0/1 * 1/1 * ? *"
how do i run commands through the rest api? you can open your browser and write - localhost:8080/triggers/all - this will give you a list of all the triggers. if you want to create a trigger you can do it with curl: curl -f -s -H 'Content-Type: application/json' -X POST localhost:8080/triggers/new --data '{"triggerKey":{"group":"example","name":"HelloWorld22"}, "jobKey":{"group":"example","name":"HelloWorld"},"misfireInstruction":"FIRE_ONCE","cronExpression":"0 0/1 * 1/1 * ? *"}'
