WorkflowManager

This library is a server/client application through dRuby protocol. Mainly it is expected to be used with SUSHI and SushiFabric. However, it is possible to use it independently from SUSHI. The main function is to create a worker thread to observe a submitted job by calling a server side function from a client.

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'workflow_manager'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install workflow_manager

Usage

Server starts

  $ workflow_manager -h                                                                                   16-05-10 15:56
  Usage:
   workflow_manager -d [druby://host:port] -m [development|production]
      -d, --server server              workflow manager URI (default: druby://localhost:12345)
      -m, --mode mode                  development|production (default: development)

At the first execution, automatically the configulation file similar to the one of Ruby on Rails are generated in config directory as follows:

config/environments/development.rb

#!/usr/bin/env ruby
# encoding: utf-8

WorkflowManager::Server.configure do |config|
  config.log_dir = 'logs'
  config.db_dir = 'dbs'
  config.interval = 30
  config.resubmit = 0
  config.cluster = WorkflowManager::LocalComputer.new('LocalComputer')
end

After installation, the following client commands become availabe:

• wfm_delete_command
• wfm_get_log
• wfm_get_script
• wfm_hello
• wfm_job_list
• wfm_kill_job
• wfm_monitoring
• wfm_status

In order to submit a job script, call wfm_monitoring command:

$ wfm_monitoring -h                                                                                     16-05-10 16:03
Usage:
 wfm_monitoring [options] [job_script.sh]
    -u, --user user                  who submitted? (default: sushi lover)
    -p, --project project            project number (default: 1001)
    -d, --server server              workflow manager URI (default: druby://localhost:12345)
