1. "Tasker" is a server that will run tasks by requests it will get from clients.
2. Each request will contain a task name and parameters.
3. There quest will be"sendandforget"-meaning the client doesn't expect a result immediately when running the task, only the UUID of the new task.
4. The result of a task should be written to a DB with some meta data (taskname and parameters, ip of the requester and timestamp)
5. Supported tasks:

• Sum two numbers
• Multiple three numbers

After the build have been finieshd successfully, run the container by specifying the name or CONTAINER_ID

sudo docker run tasker

The app is now running and available under the docker host.

http:https://DOCKER_IP:8000/

To find your docker IP you can use one of the below commands

sudo docker network inspect bridge | grep "Gateway"

sudo docker inspect CONTAINER_ID | grep "IPAddress"

The following command creates a new virtual environment named venv in the current directory:

$ python -m venv env

Activate virtual environment:

(Mac/Linux) $ source env/bin/activate

(Windows) $ source env/Scripts/activate

Install Dependencies:

$ pip install -r requirements.txt

Set Database (Make Sure you are in the same directory as manage.py):

$ python manage.py makemigrations
$ python manage.py migrate

Create SuperUser:

$ python manage.py createsuperuser

Run the development server:

$ python manage.py runserver

The project is runing at: http:https://127.0.0.1:8000/

Access admin pannel: http:https://127.0.0.1:8000/admin

There are only two tasks as example available "SumTwoNumbers" and "MultipleThreeNumbers"

The below Endpoint allows you to make a POST request the task name and task parameters as a body payload and the as the result is expected a UUID

http:https://host:8000/api/core/tasker/

Method "POST" , params as body(Postman):

{
    "task_name": "SumTwoNumbers",
    "params": {
            "num_one": 5,
            "num_two": 5
        }
}

{
    "task_name": "MultipleThreeNumbers",
    "params": {
            "num_one": 5,
            "num_two": 5,
            "num_three": 5
        }
}

The user will receive a unique UUID of the task that he executed. The user is able to check the task execution and the result by filtering in the endpoint

http:https://HOST:8000/api/core/task-results/?task_uuid=<YOUR_UUID>

The available parameters to filter the executed tasks are id=&task=&task_uuid=&requester_ip=

There is also possible to add new functions as well by creating the function under the helperScripts/taskFunctions.py and registering the task by accessing the Django Admin page http:https://HOST:8000/admin/core/task/
