Prerequisites

• An existing Spring Boot application, with db-scheduler
• Minimum db-scheduler version 12.5
• Minimum Java 11 and SpringBoot 2.7
• Optional (if you want task history): db-scheduler-log version 0.7.0

Getting started

1. Add the db-scheduler-ui spring boot starter maven dependency

<dependency>
    <groupId>no.bekk.db-scheduler-ui</groupId>
    <artifactId>db-scheduler-ui-starter</artifactId>
    <version>1.0.1</version>
</dependency>

2. Read the db-scheduler readme and follow the getting started guide. The most important is to create the scheduled_tasks table correctly. You do not need to add db-scheduler as a dependency.
3. Start your application. The db-scheduler UI can be reached at <your-app-url>/db-scheduler

Optional: task history

If you want to add task history to your UI you need to add the following dependency:

<dependency>
    <groupId>io.rocketbase.extension</groupId>
    <artifactId>db-scheduler-log-spring-boot-starter</artifactId>
    <version>0.7.0</version>
</dependency>

Follow the readme to create the correct database table.

You also need to set db-scheduler-ui.history=true in your application.properties file, and consider setting a limit to the number of logs fetched: db-scheduler-ui.log-limit=1000.

How it works

db-scheduler-ui adds a REST-api package that has a bundled frontend application. Springboot is used to configure beans and handle dependencies within the library and your application. The user interface makes calls to the scheduler-client, where it can fetch, delete, run, and reschedule tasks. These tasks are then shown in the web application. An optional log module can also be added, making it possible to view the history of all your task executions.

Configuration

db-scheduler-ui can be configured using the following options:

history: Turns on db-scheduler-log, default value is false. You can also limit the number of logs to fetch with log-limit.

db-scheduler-ui.history=true
db-scheduler-ui.log-limit=1000

If you for some reason want to hide the task data you can set this to false. defaults to true

db-scheduler-ui.task-data=false

Contributing

Feel free to create pull requests if there are features or improvements you want to add. PR's need to be approved by one of the maintainers. To publish a new version, create a release in Github and tag it with a SemVer version. A new release will then be released to maven central by a github action using JReleaser.

Before submitting a PR make sure to run mvn spotless:apply to format the code correctly. Please use the prettier config when making frontend changes

Local development

Prerequisites:

• Maven
• JDK11
• Node
• npm

There are two ways to run the frontend locally.

1. running npm run dev inside the db-scheduler-ui-frontend folder
2. running mvn install will build the frontend and copy the output to the resources folder in the db-scheduler-ui module. The frontend will then be available at the same port as the example app.

To run the backend run mvn clean install and then run the example app.
