The eae-compute service provides execution capabilities to the eae eco-system. While managing jobs is expected to be handled by the eae-scheduler, running them is the role of eae-compute. To do so, the eae-compute service exposes a REST interface.

We provide the API documentation in swagger 2.0 format. You can paste the content in the swagger editor to render the API documentation.

At its construction, the eaeCompute server receives a configuration object that MUST respect the following schema:

• Example configuration
• Tests configuration

• EAE_JOB_TYPE_PYTHON2 From the eae-utils package. Runs a python script using python2 cli
• EAE_JOB_TYPE_PIP Use the pip command. Support both install and uninstall via this job parameters
• EAE_JOB_TYPE_R From the eae-utils package. Runs an R script using Rscript cli

To add support for more Job types:

• Create a new class that inherits from the JobExecutorAbstract source.
• Implement the abstract methods _preExecution, _postExecution, startExecution and stopExecution, with their expected behavior.
• Insert your new job type allocation into the JobFactory.
