Interface JobDefinition

  • All Known Implementing Classes:
    JobDefinitionEntity
    public interface JobDefinition

    A Job Definition provides details about asynchronous background processing ("Jobs") performed by the process engine.

    Each Job Definition corresponds to a Timer or Asynchronous continuation job installed in the process engine. Jobs definitions are installed when BPMN 2.0 processes containing timer activities or asynchronous continuations are deployed.

        String getId()
        Returns:
        the Id of the job definition.

      • getProcessDefinitionId

        String getProcessDefinitionId()
        Returns:
        the id of the ProcessDefinition this job definition is associated with.

      • getProcessDefinitionKey

        String getProcessDefinitionKey()
        Returns:
        the key of the ProcessDefinition this job definition is associated with.

      • getJobType

        String getJobType()
        The Type of a job. Asynchronous continuation, timer, ...
        Returns:
        the type of a Job.

      • getJobConfiguration

        String getJobConfiguration()
        The configuration of a job definition provides details about the jobs which will be created. For timer jobs this method returns the timer configuration.
        Returns:
        the configuration of this job definition.

      • getActivityId

        String getActivityId()
        The Id of the activity (from BPMN 2.0 Xml) this Job Definition is associated with.
        Returns:
        the activity id for this Job Definition.

      • isSuspended

        boolean isSuspended()
        Indicates whether this job definition is suspended. If a job Definition is suspended, No Jobs created form the job definition will be acquired by the job executor.
        Returns:
        true if this Job Definition is currently suspended.

      • getOverridingJobPriority

        Long getOverridingJobPriority()

        Returns the execution priority for jobs of this definition, if it was set using the ManagementService API. When a job is assigned a priority, the job definition's overriding priority (if set) is used instead of the values defined in the BPMN XML.

        Returns:
        the priority that overrides the default/BPMN XML priority or null if no overriding priority is set

      • getTenantId

        String getTenantId()
        The id of the tenant this job definition belongs to. Can be null if the definition belongs to no single tenant.

      • getDeploymentId

        String getDeploymentId()
        The id of the deployment this job definition is related to. In a deployment-aware setup, this leads to all jobs of the same definition being executed on the same node.
