Robert Kanter updated OOZIE-1567: --------------------------------- Attachment: OOZIE-1567.patch The patch adds a {{-poll}} option that works when you use {{-start}} or {{-run}} on a workflow. It does not work for Coordinators or Bundles; the idea being we don't want users to poll the Oozie server with this for possibly days or weeks or longer. I set it to poll every 5 seconds; that might be too frequent though. Any thoughts on a good interval? While polling, it prints out {{Polling...}} and every interval, it prints another period {{.}} until the job finishes and the final status gets printed out. e.g. {{Polling........SUCCEEDED}} I thought about having it print out the current action, but that would be difficult without the server pushing that information to the client. I believe the main use case for this feature is so that external tools can simply submit a workflow and only return when it finishes, instead of having to handle the polling themselves. I'm not sure that this can be practically unit tested, but I did try it out manually. > Provide a wait tool in Oozie > ---------------------------- > > Key: OOZIE-1567 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OOZIE-1567 > Project: Oozie > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: core > Affects Versions: 4.0.0 > Reporter: Viji > Assignee: Robert Kanter > Priority: Trivial > Attachments: OOZIE-1567.patch > > > Currently, in situations where a program has to wait to check wether an oozie > workflow is successful or not, it is done by constantly pinging the oozie > workflow status (that is, manual scripts need to be written).
