Crate json_job_dispatch[−][src]

A small library to dispatch job files to relevant handlers.

This library implements the core logic of a Director which dispatches jobs described in JSON files to a relevant Handler and then archives the job based on whether it was accepted or rejected.

Job files

Job files are files ending in a .json extension in JSON format. Two keys are required:

kind: this string value is used to determine which handler will be used to handle the job.
data: this value is passed to the handler.

Other keys may be used (e.g., a timestamp to indicate when the job was created).

Job files are treated as read-only by the director.
