Go - Job.Handler()

Job handlers are the code that is run when a job request is submitted. These handlers should be written in a separate file to your services.

import (
  "github.com/nitrictech/go-sdk/nitric"
  "github.com/nitrictech/go-sdk/nitric/batch"
)

func main() {
  analyze := nitric.NewJob("analyze")

  analyse.Handler(func(ctx *batch.Ctx) {
    // do long running work
  }, batch.WithCpus(1), batch.WithMemory(2048), batch.WithGpus(1))

  nitric.Run()
}

Defining Batches

Batches are defined in different files to services and referenced in a project's nitric.yaml file. For example:

batch-services:
  - match: ./batches/*.go
    start: go run $SERVICE_PATH

Examples

Define a job handler

import (
  "github.com/nitrictech/go-sdk/nitric"
  "github.com/nitrictech/go-sdk/nitric/batch"
)

func main() {
  analyze := nitric.NewJob("analyze")

  analyse.Handler(func(ctx *batch.Ctx) {
    // do long running work
  })

  nitric.Run()
}

Create a job handler with custom resource requirements

import (
  "github.com/nitrictech/go-sdk/nitric"
  "github.com/nitrictech/go-sdk/nitric/batch"
)

func main() {
  analyze := nitric.NewJob("analyze")

  analyse.Handler(func(ctx *batch.Ctx) {
    // do long running work
  }, batch.WithCpus(1), batch.WithMemory(2048), batch.WithGpus(1))

  nitric.Run()
}
