Description

A trigger runs its job when the job being triggered on enters the state specified.

Once the trigger's job runs, the trigger will reflect the state of the job. The trigger will continue to reflect its job's state until it is reset.

Subsequent state changes in the triggering job are ignored until the trigger is reset and re-run.

If the triggering job is destroyed, because it is deleted or on a remote server the trigger will enter an exception state.

Example

A simple trigger.

<oddjob id="this">

    <job>

        <sequential name="Trigger Example">

            <jobs>

                <scheduling:trigger name="Alert Trigger" on="${important}" xmlns:scheduling="http://rgordon.co.uk/oddjob/scheduling">

                    <job>

                        <echo name="Alert">Important job has completed!</echo>

                    </job>

                </scheduling:trigger>

                <folder name="A Folder of Jobs">

                    <jobs>

                        <echo id="important" name="Run Me">I'm important</echo>

                    </jobs>

                </folder>

            </jobs>

        </sequential>

    </job>

</oddjob>

A trigger that runs once two other jobs have completed.

<oddjob xmlns:scheduling="http://rgordon.co.uk/oddjob/scheduling" xmlns:state="http://rgordon.co.uk/oddjob/state">

    <job>

        <sequential name="Trigger on Two Things">

            <jobs>

                <scheduling:trigger id="trigger" on="${watch-both}">

                    <job>

                        <echo id="notify" name="Triggered Job">You ran two things!</echo>

                    </job>

                </scheduling:trigger>

                <state:and id="watch-both" name="Watch Two Jobs">

                    <jobs>

                        <state:mirror job="${thing1}" name="Mirror Job 1"/>

                        <state:mirror job="${thing2}" name="Mirror Job 2"/>

                    </jobs>

                </state:and>

                <folder name="A Folder of Jobs">

                    <jobs>

                        <echo id="thing1" name="Run me!">Thank you</echo>

                        <echo id="thing2" name="Run me!">Thank you</echo>

                    </jobs>

                </folder>

            </jobs>

        </sequential>

    </job>

</oddjob>

Cancelling a trigger.

<oddjob id="this" xmlns:scheduling="http://rgordon.co.uk/oddjob/scheduling">

    <job>

        <sequential name="Trigger Example">

            <jobs>

                <scheduling:trigger id="trigger" name="Alert Trigger" on="${our-job}" state="FAILURE" cancelWhen="FINISHED">

                    <job>

                        <echo name="Alert" id="triggered-job">That job shouldn't fail!</echo>

                    </job>

                </scheduling:trigger>

                <folder name="A Folder of Jobs">

                    <jobs>

                        <echo id="our-job" name="Run Me">I won't fail</echo>

                    </jobs>

                </folder>

            </jobs>

        </sequential>

    </job>

</oddjob>

Examples Elsewhere.

• The scheduling example (examples/scheduling/dailyftp.xml) uses a trigger to send an email if one of the FTP transfers fails.
