NAME
Redis::JobQueue::Job - Object interface for jobs creating and manipulating
VERSION
This documentation refers to Redis::JobQueue::Job
version 0.06
SYNOPSIS
There are several ways to create a Redis::JobQueue::Job
object:
my $pre_job = {
id => '4BE19672-C503-11E1-BF34-28791473A258',
queue => 'lovely_queue',
job => 'strong_job',
expire => 12*60*60, # 12h
status => 'created',
workload => \'Some stuff up to 512MB long',
result => \'JOB result comes here, up to 512MB long',
};
my $job = Redis::JobQueue::Job->new(
id => $pre_job->{id},
queue => $pre_job->{queue},
job => $pre_job->{job},
expire => $pre_job->{expire},
status => $pre_job->{status},
workload => $pre_job->{workload},
result => $pre_job->{result},
);
$job = Redis::JobQueue::Job->new( $pre_job );
my $next_job = Redis::JobQueue::Job->new( $job );
Access methods to read and assign the relevant attributes of the object. For example:
$job->$workload( \'New workload' );
# or
$job->$workload( 'New workload' );
my $id = $job->id;
# 'workload' and 'result' return a reference to the data
my $result = ${$job->result};
Returns a list of names of the modified object fields:
my @modified = $job->modified_attributes;
Resets the sign of changing an attribute. For example:
$job->clear_variability( qw( status ) );
DESCRIPTION
Job API is implemented by Redis::JobQueue::Job
class.
The main features of the Redis::JobQueue::Job
class are:
Provides an object oriented model of communication.
Supports data representing various aspects of the job.
Supports the creation of the job object, an automatic allowance for the change attributes and the ability to cleanse the signs of change attributes.
CONSTRUCTOR
An error will cause the program to halt if the argument is not valid.
new( id => $uuid, ... )
It generates a Job object and can be called as either a class method or an object method.
If invoked with the first argument being an object of Redis::JobQueue::Job
class or a reference to a hash, then the new object attribute values are taken from the hash of the first argument.
new
optionally takes arguments. These arguments are in key-value pairs.
This example illustrates a new()
call with all the valid arguments:
Redis::JobQueue::Job->new(
id => '4BE19672-C503-11E1-BF34-28791473A258',
# UUID string, using conventional UUID string format.
# Do not use it because filled in automatically when
# you create a job.
queue => 'lovely_queue', # The name of the job queue.
# (required)
job => 'strong_job', # The name of the job.
# (required)
expire => 12*60*60, # Job's time to live in seconds.
# 0 for no expire time.
# (required)
status => '_created_', # Current status of the job.
# Do not use it because value should be set by the worker.
workload => \'Some stuff up to 512MB long',
# Baseline data for the function of the worker
# (the function name specified in the 'job').
# For example, can be prepared by a function
# 'Storable::freeze'.
result => \'JOB result comes here, up to 512MB long',
# The result of the function of the worker
# (the function name specified in the 'job').
# Do not use it because value should be set by the worker.
);
Returns the object itself, we can chain settings.
As attributes workload
, result
may contain a large amount of data, therefore, to improve performance, it is desirable that they be passed as references to the actual data.
Do not use spaces in an id
attribute value.
Each element in the struct data has an accessor method, which is used to assign and fetch the element's value.
METHODS
An error will cause the program to halt if the argument is not valid.
id
queue
job
expire
status
workload
result
A family of methods for a multitude of accessor methods for your data with the appropriate names. These methods to read and assign the relevant attributes of the object.
As attributes workload
, result
may contain a large amount of data, for them:
A read method returns a reference to the data.
A write method can receive both data and a reference to the data.
clear_variability( @fields )
Resets the sign of changing attributes.
modified_attributes
Returns a list of names of the modified object fields.
job_attributes
Returns a list of the names of object attributes.
EXPORT
None by default.
Additional constants are available for import, which can be used to define some type of parameters.
These are the defaults:
Redis::JobQueue::Job::MAX_DATASIZE
-
Maximum size of the data provided by data on the references
workload
,result
: 512MB.
DIAGNOSTICS
An error will cause the program to halt (confess
) if the argument is not valid. Use $@
for the analysis of the specific reasons.
