    CMD ["/usr/local/bin/start_jobscheduler_agent.sh"]
  • Explanations
    • Line 1: We start from an Alpine image that includes JDK 8. Newer Java version can be used, see Which Java versions is JobScheduler available for?
    • Line 5: Consider that $UID provides the numeric ID of the account that the JobScheduler Agent installation inside the Docker container is performed for. This numeric ID typically starts above 1000 and should correspond to the account that is used on the Docker host, i.e. the account on the Docker Host and the account inside the container should use the same numeric ID. This mechanism simplifies exposure of the Docker container's file system.
    • Line 8-9: Adjust the JobScheduler release number as required.
    • Line 16-19: The Agent tarball is copied and extracted to the container.
    • Line 22-23: Optionally a keystore file with an SSL private key and public certificate can be provided for use of the Agent with the HTTPS protocol
    • Line 26-28: Optionally directories are created and later on mounted to the Docker host for file watching by the Agent.
    • Line 31-3324: An account and group "jobscheduler" is created that is handed over ownership of installed files.
    • Line 2736-2837: The start script is copied to the container, see below chapter Start Script.
    • Line 40: The Agent's run-time directory is exposed to a volume for later mount to the Docker host.
    • Line 42: Optionally the file watching directory is exposed to a volume for later mount to the Docker host.
    • Line 45 37: Port 4445 is exposed for later mapping. This port is used for the connection between JobScheduler Master and Agent.
    • Line 4048: The account "jobscheduler" that is the owner of the installation is exposed for later mapping. This account should be mapped at run-time to the account in the Docker Host that will mount the exposed volume.
    • Line 4250: The start script is executed to launch the JobScheduler Agent daemon.

Start Script

  • The start script for Agents comes straightforward:Download: start_jobscheduler_agent.sh

    Code Block
    languagebash
    title./build/start_jobscheduler_agent.sh: Start Script
    linenumberstrue
    collapsetrue
    #!/bin/sh
    
    JS_HOSTNAME="`hostname`"
    
    /var/sos-berlin.com/jobscheduler_agent/bin/jobscheduler_agent.sh start -http-port=4445 && tail -f /dev/null
    
    # start Agent for http port on localhost interface and for https port on network interface
    # /var/sos-berlin.com/jobscheduler_agent/bin/jobscheduler_agent.sh start -http-port=localhost:4445 -https-port=$JS_HOSTNAME:4445 && tail -f /dev/null
  • Explanations
    • Line 35: The standard start script jobscheduler_agent.sh is used. The tail command prevents the start script from terminating in order to keep the container alive.
    • Line 8: Optionally the Agent can be started for use with the HTTPS protocol on a neetwork interface and the HTTP protocol on the localhost interface.

Build Command

There are a number of ways how to write a build command, find the following example:

  • A typical build command could look like this:

    Code Block
    languagebash
    title./build.sh: Build Command
    linenumberstrue
    collapsetrue
    #!/bin/sh
    
    set -e
    
    SCRIPT_HOME=$(dirname "$0")
    SCRIPT_HOME="`cd \"${SCRIPT_HOME}\" >/dev/null && pwd`"
    IMAGE_NAME="agent-1-13-4445$(basename "$SCRIPT_HOME")"
    
    docker build --no-cache --rm --tag=$IMAGE_NAME --file=./build/Dockerfile --build-arg="USER_ID=$UID" ./build
  • Explanations
    • Line 7: The script starts from the naming convention that the name of the current directory represents the image name. 
    • Line 9: The script assumes a sub-folder build to represent the Docker build context. Consider use of the --build-arg that injects the USER_ID environment variable into the image with the numeric ID of the account running the build command. This simplifies later access to the volume that optionally can be exposed by the Dockerfile as the same numeric user ID and group ID inside and outside of the container are used.

...

  • A typical run command could look like this:

    Code Block
    languagebash
    title./run.sh: Run Command
    linenumberstrue
    collapsetrue
    #!/bin/sh
    
    set -e
    
    SCRIPT_HOME=$(dirname "$0")
    SCRIPT_HOME="`cd \"${SCRIPT_HOME}\" >/dev/null && pwd`"
    IMAGE_NAME="agent-1-13-4445""$(basename "$SCRIPT_HOME")"
    
    RUN_USER_ID="$(id -u $USER):$(id -g $USER)"
    
    mkdir -p /some/path/logs$SCRIPT_HOME/data
    
    docker run -dit --rm --user=$RUN_USER_ID --hostname=$IMAGE_NAME --network=js --publish=5445:4445 --volume=/some/path/logs$SCRIPT_HOME/data:/var/sos-berlin.com/jobscheduler_agent/var_4445/logs:Z --name=$IMAGE_NAME $IMAGE_NAME
  • Explanations
    • Using a common Docker network with the --network option for JobScheduler components allows direct access to resources such as ports within the Docker network.
    • The RUN_USER_ID variable is populated with the numeric ID of the account and the group that executes the run command. This value is assigned the --user option in order to inject the account information into the container (replacing the account specified with the USE jobscheduler instruction in the Dockerfile.
    • Port 4445 for access to JobScheduler Agent by a Master can optionally be mapped to some outside port. This is not required if a Docker network is used.
    • Specify a dataSpecify a logs directory to be created that is referenced with the --volume option to expose the log run-time directory of the JobScheduler Agent.

Stop

There are a number of ways how to terminate an Agent and its container, find the following example:

  • A typical stop command could look like this:

    Code Block
    languagebash
    title./stop.sh: Stop Command
    linenumberstrue
    collapsetrue
    #!/bin/sh
    
    set -e
    
    SCRIPT_HOME=$(dirname "$0")
    SCRIPT_HOME="`cd \"${SCRIPT_HOME}\" >/dev/null && pwd`"
    IMAGE_NAME="$(basename "$SCRIPT_HOME")"
    
    JS_ACTION="stop"
    
    for option in "$@"
    do
      case "$option" in
             -kill)   JS_ACTION="kill"
                      ;;
             -abort)  JS_ACTION="abort"
                      ;;
      esac
    done
    
    JS_CONTAINER=$(docker container ps -a -q --filter "ancestor=$IMAGE_NAME")
    
    if [ -z "$JS_CONTAINER" ]
    then
      echo ".. container not running: $IMAGE_NAME"
      exit 0
    fi
    
    for f in "${JS_CONTAINER[@]}"; do
      echo ".. stopping Agent ($JS_ACTION): $f"
      docker container exec $f /bin/sh -c "/var/sos-berlin.com/jobscheduler_agent/bin/jobscheduler_agent.sh $JS_ACTION"
    
      echo ".. stopping container ($JS_ACTION): $f"
      if [ "$JS_ACTION" = "stop" ]
      then
        docker container stop $f
      else
        docker container kill $f
      fi
    done
    
  • Explanations
    • Before stopping the container the Agent daemon is terminated by use of its start script. This offers the following modes for termination:
      • stop: terminate Agent normally, wait for any running tasks to complete.
      • abort: kill any running tasks and terminate the Agent abnormally.
      • kill: kill immediately the Agent process and any running tasks.
    • Only after the Agent daemon is terminated the container can be stopped or killed for reading. Avoid to modify log files in this directory and to add new files.
