azk-client

Azkaban client, written in Java, based on Azkaban REST APIs, for managing workflows easily.

Features

Currently, it supports 3 AzkCmds to manage prepared Azkaban workflows. We have described as in the following list:

• publish - Publish our azkaban workflows to the remote Azkaban Web Server.
• exec - Execute a published flow manually.
• delete - Delete a Azkaban workflow.

How To

Build

We manage this project by using Maven, you can build it by executing below command lines:

git clone https://github.com/shirdrn/azk-client.git
cd azk-client
mvn package

You should get packaged file azk-client-0.0.1-SNAPSHOT-jar-with-dependencies.jar in the target directory. And then, you can execute the executable file for more information:

java -jar target/azk-client-0.0.1-SNAPSHOT-jar-with-dependencies.jar

The output looks like:

2017-10-12 15:24:26 INFO  AzkClient:45 - Input args: []
usage: deployer
 -c,--config <arg>   Specify required configuration file path.
 -h,--help           Print help detail information.
 -o,--overwrite      Specify whether overwrite published job.
 -t,--type <arg>     Specify operation type: publish|exec|delete

Preparation works

Before using this tool, you should create a properties file, which includes required information about Azkaban server and our workflow. For example, we prepare a configuration file config.properties:

azkaban.server.url = http://172.16.117.62:8099
azkaban.user = azkaban
azkaban.password = azkaban
project.name = test-demo-hourly
project.description = test-demo-hourly
job.zip.file = /Users/yanjun/Azkaban/demo/demo-syj.zip
cron.expr = 0 45 * * * ?

You can find above file in main/resources.

Publish an Azkaban workflow

Preparing and packaging an Azkaban .zip file is required, such as /Users/yanjun/Azkaban/demo/demo-syj.zip. Then we can publish the workflow to the Azkaban server, issue the following command:

java -jar target/azkaban-app-deployer-0.0.1-SNAPSHOT-jar-with-dependencies.jar -t publish -c /Users/yanjun/Workspaces/github/azk-client/src/main/resources/config.properties

Execute an Azkaban workflow manually

java -jar target/azkaban-app-deployer-0.0.1-SNAPSHOT-jar-with-dependencies.jar -t exec -c /Users/yanjun/Workspaces/github/azk-client/src/main/resources/config.properties

Delete an Azkaban workflow

java -jar target/azkaban-app-deployer-0.0.1-SNAPSHOT-jar-with-dependencies.jar -t delete -c /Users/yanjun/Workspaces/github/azk-client/src/main/resources/config.properties
