View Source Skitter (Skitter v0.7.2)

Skitter framework DSLs and runtime interaction.

This module serves as an entry point to access both the DSLs implemented by Skitter and to interact with the Skitter runtime system. The former is done by adding use Skitter to an Elixir file or module, while the latter is done by calling the functions defined in this module.

Domain-specific languages

Adding use Skitter.DSL to an Elixir file or module imports the following macros:

Which can be used to define operations, strategies and workflows.

Runtime interaction

The Skitter runtime system is responsible for deploying workflows over a cluster and for interacting with running workflows. The Skitter.Runtime module offers an API to interact with the runtime system and the information it tracks. This module offers a shorthand to access the most commonly used functions of this API.

Summary

Functions

Deploy a workflow over the cluster.

Stop a deployed workflow with reference ref.

Functions

Deploy a workflow over the cluster.

Starts a Skitter application (i.e. a Skitter.Workflow.t/0) by deploying it over the cluster. The workflow is flattened (using Skitter.Workflow.flatten/1) before it is deployed. After deployment, this function returns a Skitter.Runtime.ref/0, which can be used by the functions in Skitter.Runtime, or to stop the workflow.

Stop a deployed workflow with reference ref.
