Chapter 14. Running scripts and tasks on Data Grid Server
Add tasks and scripts to Data Grid Server deployments for remote execution from the Command Line Interface (CLI) and Hot Rod or REST clients. You can implement tasks as custom Java classes or define scripts in languages such as JavaScript.
14.1. Adding tasks to Data Grid Server deployments
Add your custom server task classes to Data Grid Server.
Prerequisites
Stop Data Grid Server if it is running.
Data Grid Server does not support runtime deployment of custom classes.
Procedure
Add a
META-INF/services/org.infinispan.tasks.ServerTask
file that contains the fully qualified names of server tasks, for example:example.HelloTask
- Package your server task implementation in a JAR file.
-
Copy the JAR file to the
$RHDG_HOME/server/lib
directory of your Data Grid Server installation. - Add your classes to the deserialization allow list in your Data Grid configuration. Alternatively set the allow list using system properties.
14.1.1. Data Grid Server tasks
Data Grid Server tasks are classes that extend the org.infinispan.tasks.ServerTask
interface and generally include the following method calls:
setTaskContext()
-
Allows access to execution context information including task parameters, cache references on which tasks are executed, and so on. In most cases, implementations store this information locally and use it when tasks are actually executed. When using
SHARED
instantiation mode, the task should use aThreadLocal
to store theTaskContext
for concurrent invocations. getName()
- Returns unique names for tasks. Clients invoke tasks with these names.
getExecutionMode()
Returns the execution mode for tasks.
-
TaskExecutionMode.ONE_NODE
only the node that handles the request executes the script. Although scripts can still invoke clustered operations. This is the default. -
TaskExecutionMode.ALL_NODES
Data Grid uses clustered executors to run scripts across nodes. For example, server tasks that invoke stream processing need to be executed on a single node because stream processing is distributed to all nodes.
-
getInstantiationMode()
Returns the instantiation mode for tasks.
-
TaskInstantiationMode.SHARED
creates a single instance that is reused for every task execution on the same server. This is the default. -
TaskInstantiationMode.ISOLATED
creates a new instance for every invocation.
-
call()
-
Computes a result. This method is defined in the
java.util.concurrent.Callable
interface and is invoked with server tasks.
Server task implementations must adhere to service loader pattern requirements. For example, implementations must have a zero-argument constructors.
The following HelloTask
class implementation provides an example task that has one parameter. It also illustrates the use of a ThreadLocal
to store the TaskContext
for concurrent invocations.
package example; import org.infinispan.tasks.ServerTask; import org.infinispan.tasks.TaskContext; public class HelloTask implements ServerTask<String> { private static final ThreadLocal<TaskContext> taskContext = new ThreadLocal<>(); @Override public void setTaskContext(TaskContext ctx) { taskContext.set(ctx); } @Override public String call() throws Exception { TaskContext ctx = taskContext.get(); String name = (String) ctx.getParameters().get().get("name"); return "Hello " + name; } @Override public String getName() { return "hello-task"; } }
14.2. Adding scripts to Data Grid Server deployments
Use the command line interface to add scripts to Data Grid Server.
Prerequisites
Data Grid Server stores scripts in the ___script_cache
cache. If you enable cache authorization, users must have CREATE
permissions to add to ___script_cache
.
Assign users the deployer
role at minimum if you use default authorization settings.
Procedure
Define scripts as required.
For example, create a file named
multiplication.js
that runs on a single Data Grid server, has two parameters, and uses JavaScript to multiply a given value:// mode=local,language=javascript multiplicand * multiplier
- Create a CLI connection to Data Grid.
Use the
task
command to upload scripts, as in the following example:task upload --file=multiplication.js multiplication
Verify that your scripts are available.
ls tasks multiplication
14.2.1. Data Grid Server scripts
Data Grid Server scripting is based on the javax.script
API and is compatible with any JVM-based ScriptEngine implementation.
Hello world
The following is a simple example that runs on a single Data Grid server, has one parameter, and uses JavaScript:
// mode=local,language=javascript,parameters=[greetee] "Hello " + greetee
When you run the preceding script, you pass a value for the greetee
parameter and Data Grid returns "Hello ${value}"
.
14.2.1.1. Script metadata
Metadata provides additional information about scripts that Data Grid Server uses when running scripts.
Script metadata are property=value
pairs that you add to comments in the first lines of scripts, such as the following example:
// name=test, language=javascript // mode=local, parameters=[a,b,c]
-
Use comment styles that match the scripting language (
//
,;;
,#
). -
Separate
property=value
pairs with commas. - Separate values with single (') or double (") quote characters.
Property | Description |
---|---|
| Defines the execution mode and has the following values:
|
| Specifies the ScriptEngine that executes the script. |
| Specifies filename extensions as an alternative method to set the ScriptEngine. |
| Specifies roles that users must have to execute scripts. |
| Specifies an array of valid parameter names for this script. Invocations which specify parameters not included in this list cause exceptions. |
| Optionally sets the MediaType (MIME type) for storing data as well as parameter and return values. This property is useful for remote clients that support particular data formats only.
Currently you can set only |
14.2.1.2. Script bindings
Data Grid exposes internal objects as bindings for script execution.
Binding | Description |
---|---|
| Specifies the cache against which the script is run. |
| Specifies the marshaller to use for serializing data to the cache. |
|
Specifies the |
| Specifies the instance of the script manager that runs the script. You can use this binding to run other scripts from a script. |
14.2.1.3. Script parameters
Data Grid lets you pass named parameters as bindings for running scripts.
Parameters are name,value
pairs, where name
is a string and value
is any value that the marshaller can interpret.
The following example script has two parameters, multiplicand
and multiplier
. The script takes the value of multiplicand
and multiplies it with the value of multiplier
.
// mode=local,language=javascript multiplicand * multiplier
When you run the preceding script, Data Grid responds with the result of the expression evaluation.
14.2.2. Programmatically Creating Scripts
Add scripts with the Hot Rod RemoteCache
interface as in the following example:
RemoteCache<String, String> scriptCache = cacheManager.getCache("___script_cache"); scriptCache.put("multiplication.js", "// mode=local,language=javascript\n" + "multiplicand * multiplier\n");
Reference
14.3. Running scripts and tasks
Use the command line interface to run tasks and scripts on Data Grid Server deployments. Alternatively you can execute scripts and tasks from Hot Rod clients.
Prerequisites
- Add scripts or tasks to Data Grid Server.
Procedure
- Create a CLI connection to Data Grid.
Use the
task
command to run tasks and scripts, as in the following examples:Execute a script named
multiplier.js
and specify two parameters:task exec multiplier.js -Pmultiplicand=10 -Pmultiplier=20 200.0
Execute a task named
@@cache@names
to retrieve a list of all available caches:task exec @@cache@names ["___protobuf_metadata","mycache","___script_cache"]
Programmatic execution
-
Call the
execute()
method to run scripts with the Hot RodRemoteCache
interface, as in the following examples:
Script execution
RemoteCache<String, Integer> cache = cacheManager.getCache(); // Create parameters for script execution. Map<String, Object> params = new HashMap<>(); params.put("multiplicand", 10); params.put("multiplier", 20); // Run the script with the parameters. Object result = cache.execute("multiplication.js", params);
Task execution
// Add configuration for a locally running server. ConfigurationBuilder builder = new ConfigurationBuilder(); builder.addServer().host("127.0.0.1").port(11222); // Connect to the server. RemoteCacheManager cacheManager = new RemoteCacheManager(builder.build()); // Retrieve the remote cache. RemoteCache<String, String> cache = cacheManager.getCache(); // Create task parameters. Map<String, String> parameters = new HashMap<>(); parameters.put("name", "developer"); // Run the server task. String greet = cache.execute("hello-task", parameters); System.out.println(greet);
