motivation

Develop a concurrent task scheduling system in go.

system overview

description

keiji is a concurrent task scheduling system written in Go, designed to manage and execute tasks on a scheduled basis. The system consists of five main components that work together to provide robust task scheduling and management.

components

keiji-main

Provides a command line interface (CLI) for interacting with tasks and services. Users can create, manage, and monitor tasks using straightforward CLI commands. Supports commands for initializing workspaces, creating tasks, and more.

keiji-core

Acts as the backbone of the entire system by providing essential services such as logging, storage, and utility functions. Ensures consistent and reusable functionality across all components. Handles database access, task creation APIs, templates, and more.

keiji-bus

Facilitates inter-process communication between the CLI and the scheduler. The bus acts as a bridge, relaying commands such as stop, disable, and delete from the CLI to the scheduler. The scheduler then listens for these commands on the bus and translates them into actionable directives that are executed as needed. These directives can be task specific or system wide.

keiji-scheduler

Manages the execution of tasks based on the schedule defined for the task. Reads commands from the bus and applies them as needed. These commands may be task directives e.g disable, delete, stop or system level directives e.g shutdown. Logs all activities to provide detailed insights into task execution and system status.

task-binary

Each task, once created, is compiled into a binary executable. These binaries are executed at their scheduled intervals, with the scheduler managing their lifecycle.

work-space

The workspace is a folder located at $HOME/keiji, designated for the development of tasks. It is created when the init command is run.

installation

go install github.com/aodr3w/keiji@latest

After install, the keiji command should be available.

usage

step 1: Initializing a workspace

command

keiji init

output

2024/08/10 18:43:43 open /Users/andrewodiit/keiji/settings.conf: no such file or directory
2024/08/10 18:43:43 Initializing work space...
2024/08/10 18:43:53 service scheduler not found
2024/08/10 18:43:53 service bus not found
2024/08/10 18:43:53 installing scheduler
2024/08/10 18:43:58 ok
2024/08/10 18:43:58 installing bus
2024/08/10 18:44:01 ok

after initialization you should have the following folder structures in your system

$HOME/keiji

keiji
├── go.mod
├── go.sum
├── settings.conf
└── tasks

go.mod & go.sum - all workspace dependencies used by your tasks.
settings.conf - database , timezone & log rotation settings.
tasks/ - task source code is stored here after creation.

$HOME/.keiji

.keiji
├── db
│   └── keiji.db
└── logs
    └── services
        ├── bus
        │   └── bus.log
        ├── repo
        │   └── repo.log
        └── scheduler
            └── scheduler.log

db - default sqllite3 storage created during the initialization process. It can be changed to postgresql in settings.conf

logs - contains log files for services. Once tasks are created, a folder for tasks will appear here.

NB: Folder structure is required for clear separation of concerns. This is particularly important once log rotation is enabled.

WARNING ⚠️ : DO NOT MODIFY THE STRUCTURE OF THESE DIRECTORIES

step 2: create a task

command

keiji task --create --name=ping_google --desc="pings google"

output

2024/08/10 19:27:09 creating task ping_google
2024/08/10 19:27:09 ok

result

keiji
└── tasks
    └── ping_google
        ├── .env
        ├── function.go
        ├── main.go
        └── schedule.go

function.go

Tasks logic goes here e.g

func Function() error {
   /*
   	please put the logic you wish to execute in this function.
   */
   client := http.Client{
   	Timeout: 5 * time.Second,
   }
   resp, err := client.Get("https://www.google.com/")
   fmt.Println("status: ", resp.StatusCode)
   if err != nil {
   	return err
   }

   return nil
}

schedule.go

Tasks schedule goes here e.g

package main

import (
	"log"

	"github.com/aodr3w/keiji-core/tasks"
)

func Schedule() error {
	/*
		    DEFINE FUNCTION SCHEDULE HERE
			example;
			 core.NewSchedule().Run().Every(10).Seconds().Build()
			)
	*/
	log.Println("scheduling function...")
	return tasks.NewSchedule().Run().Every(10).Seconds().Build()
}

☝🏾 A task can can be schedule to run on a fixed interval defined as Seconds, Minutes or Hours (as shown in code above)
Alternatively, it can be scheduled to run on a specific day at a specific time e.g

return tasks.NewSchedule().On().Friday().At("10:00PM").Build()

The time value can be either 12hour or 24hour format.

step 3: build & save a task

command

keiji task --name=ping_google --build

output

2024/08/10 19:46:30 task found , building...
2024/08/10 19:46:32 scheduling function...
2024/08/10 19:46:32 task saved

2024/08/10 19:46:32 executable path /Users/andrewodiit/.keiji/exec/tasks/ping_google.bin
2024/08/10 19:46:32 source path /Users/andrewodiit/keiji/tasks/ping_google
2024/08/10 19:46:35 executable created

2024/08/10 19:46:35 /Users/andrewodiit/go/pkg/mod/github.com/aodr3w/keiji-core@v0.2.2/db/repo.go:184 record not found
[0.219ms] [rows:0] SELECT * FROM `task_models` WHERE name = "ping_google" AND `task_models`.`deleted_at` IS NULL ORDER BY `task_models`.`id` LIMIT 1
2024/08/10 19:46:35 task saved

step 4: check task details

command

keiji task --get --name=ping_google

output

TaskModel:
ID: 1
TaskId: ac965b18-b229-4360-a294-72913115bb45
Name: ping_google
Description: pings google
Schedule: day:Friday,time:10:00PM
LastExecutionTime: N/A
NextExecutionTime: N/A
LogPath: /Users/andrewodiit/.keiji/logs/tasks/ping_google/ping_google.log
Slug: ping_google
Type: DayTime
Executable: /Users/andrewodiit/.keiji/exec/tasks/ping_google.bin
IsRunning: false
IsQueued: false
IsError: false
IsDisabled: false
ErrorTxt:

step 5: start system

start system command

keiji system --start

output

2024/08/10 19:51:44 /Users/andrewodiit/.keiji/exec/services/bus.pid: PID file not found
2024/08/10 19:51:44 service started with pid 72628
2024/08/10 19:51:44 /Users/andrewodiit/.keiji/exec/services/scheduler.pid: open /Users/andrewodiit/.keiji/exec/services/scheduler.pid: no such file or directory
2024/08/10 19:51:44 service started with pid 72630

check system status command

keiji system --status

output

======== SERVICES ========
NAME               STATUS            
bus                ONLINE            
scheduler          ONLINE            
======== SERVICES ========

step 6: view logs

bus logs

keiji system --logs --bus

output

2024/08/10 19:51:44 waiting for termination signal
2024/08/10 19:51:44 Server started at :8005
2024/08/10 19:51:44 Server started at :8006

scheduler logs

keiji system --logs --scheduler

output

2024/08/10 19:51:45 waiting for termination signal
time=2024-08-10T19:51:45.330+03:00 level=INFO msg="starting tcp-bus listener"
time=2024-08-10T19:51:45.330+03:00 level=INFO msg="running start function"

task logs

keiji task --logs --name=ping_google

output

time=2024-08-11T11:18:54.687+03:00 level=INFO msg="Task Next Execution Time: 2024-08-16 22:00:00 +0300 +0300"

NB: you can supply an editor command e.g --code , --vim, --nano when viewing logs to open file in an editor . Choose one that available on your OS.

step 7: modify task functionality

In the example below, i added a fmt.Println("Pinging Google....") statement in function.go and changed the schedule.go to run every 10 seconds.

updated source code

package main

import (
	"fmt"
	"net/http"
	"time"
)

func Function() error {
	/*
		please put the logic you wish to execute in this function.
	*/
	client := http.Client{
		Timeout: 5 * time.Second,
	}
	fmt.Println("Pinging Google....")
	resp, err := client.Get("https://www.google.com/")
	fmt.Println("status: ", resp.StatusCode)
	if err != nil {
		return err
	}

	return nil
}

updated schedule

return tasks.NewSchedule().Run().Every(10).Seconds().Build()

rebuild & restart task

keiji task --name=ping_google --build --restart

2024/08/11 13:31:39 task found , building...
2024/08/11 13:31:42 scheduling function...

q&a

How do i fix errors in a task ?

When an error occurs, the task.IsError field will be set to true and the scheduler will not pick the task until isError is set to False. Inorder to resolve the error , do the following;

update function.go for the task i.e fix the error.
rebuild the task to update the task's binary i.e;

keiji task --build --name=<task_name>

mark the task as resolved e.g

keiji task --resolve --name=<task_name>

assuming the scheduler is running, it will pick it up for execution.

How do i change my workspace settings ?

Open settings.conf , you can modify one of 4 settings:

DB_URL - must be one of 2 values, default (sqllite3) or a valid postgresql URL.
TIME_ZONE - must be a valid timezone string in the format Continent/City.
ROTATE_LOGS - must be an integer either 1 (true) or 0 (False).
LOG_MAX_SIZE - must be a non negative integer.

Can i use a database other than sqllite3 and postgresql ?

keiji only supports sqllite3 and postgresql, you would need to fork the repository and modify it as you wish.
