Quick Start

Overview

This guide will help you quick start with the basic usage of the library. For more detailed information, please refer to the API documentation.

Installation

You can install the library using npm:

npm install @litert/xxl-job-integration

Importing the Library

This library provides following components for integration with XXL Job:

• Main Framework

  The module exports the main framework for XXL Job integration by default (index.js).

  • Executor

    The component that accepts the task requests and executes the tasks.

  • Admin API Client

    The API client that communicates with the XXL Job Admin server.

  • Register Agent

    The component that registers the executor with the XXL Job Admin server, and keeps the registration alive.

  Let's import the framework firstly:

  import * as LibXJ from '@litert/xxl-job-integration';

• Components

  And some optional/replaceable components that should be imported and used separately:

  • HTTP Listener

    The component that listens for HTTP requests from the XXL Job Admin server.

    • Using node:http module

      import * as NodeHttpListener from '@litert/xxl-job-integration/lib/Listener/NodeHttp';

    • Using fastify framework

      import * as FastifyListener from '@litert/xxl-job-integration/lib/Listener/Fastify';

  • Log Manager

    The component that manages the logs of the executed tasks.

    • MemoryLogManager

      import * as MemoryLogs from '@litert/xxl-job-integration/lib/LogManagers/MemoryLogManager';

    • FileLogManager

      import * as FileLogs from '@litert/xxl-job-integration/lib/LogManagers/FileLogManager';

  • Job Runner

    The component that runs the tasks of determined type.

    The XXL-Job admin server supports multiple types of tasks. By now, the built-in job runner contains the following types:

    • Bean Runner

      import { XxlJobBeanHandlerRunner } from '@litert/xxl-job-integration/lib/JobRunner/Bean';

    • NodeJS In-Process Runner

      import { XxlJobNodeJsInProcessHandlerRunner } from '@litert/xxl-job-integration/lib/JobRunner/NodeJsInProcess';

First Executor Example

Here is a full example with following features:

• Using fastify as the HTTP listener.
• Using MemoryLogManager as the log manager, the logs of each task will be stored in memory.
• Using job runner of Bean type, writing the predefined job handler in NodeJS.
• Using job runner of NodeJS type, running a NodeJS script in the current process.

import * as LibXJ from '@litert/xxl-job-integration';
import { XxlJobBeanHandlerRunner } from '@litert/xxl-job-integration/lib/JobRunner/Bean';
import * as LibXjFastify from '@litert/xxl-job-integration/lib/Listener/Fastify';
import * as NodeTimer from 'node:timers/promises';
import { XxlJobNodeJsInProcessHandlerRunner } from '@litert/xxl-job-integration/lib/JobRunner/NodeJsInProcess';
import { MemoryLogManager } from '@litert/xxl-job-integration/lib/LogManagers/MemoryLogManager';

// create a in-process NodeJS script runner
// this allows you to create a job with a NodeJS script in XXL-Job Admin server,
// and the script will be executed in the current process.
const nodejsRunner = new XxlJobNodeJsInProcessHandlerRunner({
    // the environment data that will be passed to the script
    // so you can use it in the script.
    // When each task is executed, a copy of this data will be passed to the script.
    // This is useful for passing some configuration data to the script.
    // For example, you can pass some predefined data to the script.
    envData: { test: '1234' }
});

// Now let's create a bean runner, where bean is a predefined job handler written in NodeJS.
// This runner is a registry of named job handlers.
// Each job handler has a name, and can be called by the XXL-Job Admin server with the specific name.
const beanRunner = new XxlJobBeanHandlerRunner();

// Let's register a job handler named "test1".
beanRunner.add({
    'name': 'test1',
    'maxQueueDepth': 2, // At most 2 tasks can be queued for this job handler.
    'callback': async (ctx) => {

        for (let i = 0; i < 5; i++) {
            if (!ctx.isActive()) {
                ctx.log('info', `Job test1 is stopped at iteration ${i}`);
                return;
            }
            ctx.log('info', `Job test1 is running at iteration ${i}`);
            await NodeTimer.setTimeout(1000, undefined, {
                // an AbortSignal is contained in the context object
                // you can use it to control some asynchronous operations
                signal: ctx.signal,
            });
        }

        // throw error if you want to test error handling
    },
});

// Create an API client for the XXL-Job Admin server.
const adminApiClient = LibXJ.createAdminApiClient({
    'apiToken': process.env.XXL_JOB_TEST_API_TOKEN ?? 'default_token',
    'baseUrl': process.env.XXL_JOB_TEST_ADMIN_BASEURL ?? 'http://localhost:7070/xxl-job-admin',
});

// Create a log manager to manage the logs of the executed tasks.
const logger = new MemoryLogManager({ maxAgeMs: 300000, timerIntervalMs: 60000 });

// Start the log GC timer, which will clean the old logs periodically.
logger.startTimer();

// Now create the executor, just put the logger and the admin API client into the executor.
const executor = LibXJ.createExecutor({
    adminApiClient: adminApiClient,
    logManager: logger,
});

// Register the job runners to the executor.
executor.registerRunner([beanRunner, nodejsRunner]);

// Finally, create the HTTP listener using `fastify` framework,
// and bind the executor to the listener.
// The listener will listen for HTTP requests from the XXL Job Admin server.
// The executor will handle the requests and execute the tasks.
(async () => {

    // Create the HTTP listener using `fastify` framework.
    await LibXjFastify.create(executor, {
        port: 28582,
        host: '0.0.0.0',
    });

    // create a register agent to register the executor with the XXL Job Admin server
    // and keep the registration alive.
    const register = LibXJ.createRegisterAgent(
        process.env.XXL_JOB_TEST_APP_NAME ?? 'my-test-app-1',
        process.env.XXL_JOB_TEST_APP_URL ?? 'http://192.168.137.2:28582',
        adminApiClient,
    );

    // Register the executor with the XXL Job Admin server.
    // The first parameter is the flag to indicate whether to start the timer for keeping the registration alive.
    await register.register(true);

    console.log('XXL-JOB Executor is running on http://localhost:28582');
})();
