Single Job Container Example

This example shows how to run a container with CloverDX Server for a specific job. The image already contains a sandbox and uses an embedded Derby database. When the job finishes execution, the container is stopped.

Running the example

• Build the base image

  docker build -t cloverdx-server .
  

• Copy your license file (license.dat) to examples/single-job-container/conf directory

• Build the image

  docker build -t cloverdx-single-job-container examples/single-job-container
  

• Run the job in foreground mode and delete the container afterwards

  # executes Examples/graph/sleep.grf (default job from Dockerfile) - it waits 20s and finishes successfully
  docker run --rm cloverdx-single-job-container
  
  # executes Example/graph/fail.grf - it fails after 5s
  docker run --rm -e JOB_PATH=graph/fail.grf cloverdx-single-job-container 

This command returns 0 as the exit code if the job finishes successfully and a non-zero exit code if the job fails.

Implementation

conf/configuration_import.xml contains a custom event listener written in Groovy. The listener starts the job after Server startup, waits for the job to finish and stops the container.
