Class NativeJob

java.lang.Object
  org.quartz.jobs.NativeJob

All Implemented Interfaces:

Job

public class NativeJob
extends Object
implements Job

Built in job for executing native executables in a separate process.

             JobDetail job = new JobDetail("dumbJob", null, org.quartz.jobs.NativeJob.class);
             job.getJobDataMap().put(org.quartz.jobs.NativeJob.PROP_COMMAND, "echo \"hi\" >> foobar.txt");
             Trigger trigger = TriggerUtils.makeSecondlyTrigger(5);
             trigger.setName("dumbTrigger");
             sched.scheduleJob(job, trigger);
 

If PROP_WAIT_FOR_PROCESS is true, then the Integer exit value of the process will be saved as the job execution result in the JobExecutionContext.

Field Summary

static String	PROP_COMMAND Required parameter that specifies the name of the command (executable) to be ran.
static String	PROP_CONSUME_STREAMS Optional parameter (value should be 'true' or 'false') that specifies whether the spawned process's stdout and stderr streams should be consumed.
static String	PROP_PARAMETERS Optional parameter that specifies the parameters to be passed to the executed command.
static String	PROP_WAIT_FOR_PROCESS Optional parameter (value should be 'true' or 'false') that specifies whether the job should wait for the execution of the native process to complete before it completes.

PROP_WAIT_FOR_PROCESS

PROP_CONSUME_STREAMS

public static final String PROP_CONSUME_STREAMS

Optional parameter (value should be 'true' or 'false') that specifies whether the spawned process's stdout and stderr streams should be consumed. If the process creates output, it is possible that it might 'hang' if the streams are not consumed.

Defaults to false.

Method Detail

execute

public void execute(JobExecutionContext context)
             throws JobExecutionException

Description copied from interface: Job

Called by the Scheduler when a Trigger fires that is associated with the Job.

The implementation may wish to set a result object on the JobExecutionContext before this method exits. The result itself is meaningless to Quartz, but may be informative to JobListeners or TriggerListeners that are watching the job's execution.

Specified by:

execute in interface Job

Throws:

JobExecutionException - if there is an exception while executing the job.

getLog

protected org.slf4j.Logger getLog()
