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.

> 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). It would be
> good if Oozie provided a {{oozie wait -jobID <JOBID>}} or similar.
