Schedule remote web calls with an API call to this service. Kind of like cron, but a web service. Not backed by any DB. Currently wipes all cron jobs on each start.
go get github.com/integrii/sentinel
Then, start the server by running sentinel. It listens on port 80.
Send a POST to the root of the server with the task JSON in the body. If you are using a go application, the jobRequest sub-package here contains helpful functions for creating and sending these requests. The main_test.go file also contains a helpful example.
A web request for a simple POST job that sends a post header for each property looks like this:
{
"JobType": "HTTPPOSTJSON",
"ServerURL": "https://test.com/test",
"Parameters": {
"test": "true",
"great": "Absolutely!"
},
"Schedule": {
"Time": 1476853274
}
}
The server will return a 200 status header along with an ID for the scheduled task in the body in plain text.
- HTTPPOST: Causes a post where the
Parameterssection in the request is sent as POST form headers.
Send a POST or GET to the /test endpoint of the server with the ID of the task that you want to delete in the body as plain text. You can expect a 200 from this or a 401 if the job did not exist.
A insomnia workspace is included that can generate Sentinel web request examples in nearly any language you desire. Simply download Insomnia and load the Insomnia-Workspace.json file.
