au-research / ARDC-TaskManager

A Task Manager Application based on the Python ANDS-Harvester

ANDS-TaskManager

The ANDS Task Manager is a helper that runs in the background, executing tasks so that the harvesting / indexing process is improved

Installation

Requirements:

• python 3.5 - 3.7
• pip3 for respective versions
• virtualenv (optional)

pip3 install -r requirements.txt

Running the Harvester as a Linux service

The file ands-taskprocessor is a System V init script to be copied into /etc/init.d. We used ands-taskmanager as the name of the script instead of ands-taskprocessor

cp ands-taskprocessor /etc/init.d/ands-taskmanager
chmod 755 /etc/init.d/ands-taskmanager
chkconfig --add ands-taskmanager
chkconfig ands-taskmanager on
service ands-taskmanager start

The Task Manager will start up, and it will be started at each boot time. The script supports start, stop, and status commands.
