29 =head1 NAME
31 C4::BackgroundJob - manage long-running jobs
32 initiated from the web staff interface
34 =head1 SYNOPSIS
36 # start tracking a job
37 my $job = C4::BackgroundJob->new($sessionID, $job_name, $job_invoker, $num_work_units);
38 my $jobID = $job->id();
39 $job->progress($work_units_processed);
40 $job->finish($job_result_hashref);
42 # get status and results of a job
43 my $job = C4::BackgroundJob->fetch($sessionID, $jobID);
44 my $max_work_units = $job->size();
45 my $work_units_processed = $job->progress();
46 my $job_status = $job->status();
47 my $job_name = $job->name();
48 my $job_invoker = $job->invoker();
49 my $results_hashref = $job->results();
51 This module manages tracking the progress and results
52 of (potentially) long-running jobs initiated from
53 the staff user interface. Such jobs can include
54 batch MARC and patron record imports.
56 =head1 METHODS
58 =head2 new
60 my $job = C4::BackgroundJob->new($sessionID, $job_name, $job_invoker, $num_work_units);
62 Create a new job object and set its status to 'running'. C<$num_work_units>
63 should be a number representing the size of the job; the units of the
64 job size are up to the caller and could be number of records,
65 number of bytes, etc.
