#Kala
Kala is a simplistic, modern, and performant job scheduler written in Go. It lives in a single binary and does not have any dependencies.
Kala was inspired by Chronos, developed by Airbnb, but the need for a Chronos for the rest of us. Chronos is built on top of Mesos, and is fault tolerant and distributed by design. These are two features which Kala does not have, as it was built for smaller deployments.
It has a simple JSON over HTTP API, so it is language agnostic. It has Job Stats, Configurable Retries, uses ISO 8601 Date and Interval notation, Dependant Jobs, and is Persistent (using BoltDB). Eventually it will support Redis as a Backend and have a Web UI.
Please create an issue within Github, or also feel free to email me at aj ajvb.em
I recommend checking out Chronos. This is designed to be the Chronos for start-ups.
Step 0: Requires Go 1.0+ and git
Step 1: Clone this repo
git clone https://github.com/ajvb/kala.git
Step 2: Install Dependencies
cd kala && go get ./...
Step 3: Build the Kala binary
go build
Step 4: Move to somewhere in your $PATH
mv kala /usr/local/bin/
One liner:
git clone https://github.com/ajvb/kala.git && cd kala && go get ./... && go build && mv kala /usr/local/bin/
Once you have installed Kala onto the machine you would like to use, you can follow the below steps to start using it.
To Run Kala:
ajvb$ kala run
2015/06/10 18:31:31 main.go:59:func·001 :: INFO 002 Starting server on port :8000...
ajvb$ kala run -p 2222
2015/06/10 18:31:31 main.go:59:func·001 :: INFO 002 Starting server on port :2222...Kala runs on 127.0.0.1:8000 by default. You can easily test it out by curling the metrics path.
ajvb$ curl http://127.0.0.1:8000/api/v1/stats/
{"Stats":{"ActiveJobs":2,"DisabledJobs":0,"Jobs":2,"ErrorCount":0,"SuccessCount":0,"NextRunAt":"2015-06-04T19:25:16.82873873-07:00","LastAttemptedRun":"0001-01-01T00:00:00Z","CreatedAt":"2015-06-03T19:58:21.433668791-07:00"}}Once its up in running, you can utilize curl or the official go client to interact with Kala. Also check out the examples directory.
There are more examples in the examples directory within this repo. Currently its pretty messy. Feel free to submit a new example if you have one.
After installing supervisord, open its config file (/etc/supervisor/supervisord.conf is the default usually) and add something like:
[program:kala]
command=kala run
autorestart=true
stdout_logfile=/var/log/kala.stdout.log
stderr_logfile=/var/log/kala.stderr.log
All routes have a prefix of /api/v1

| Task | Method | Route |
|---|---|---|
| Creating a Job | POST | /job |
| Getting a list of all Jobs | GET | /job |
| Getting a Job | GET | /job/{id} |
| Deleting a Job | DELETE | /job/{id} |
| Getting metrics about a certain Job | GET | /job/stats/{id} |
| Starting a Job manually | POST | /job/start/{id} |
| Getting app-level metrics | GET | /stats |
This route accepts both a GET and a POST. Performing a GET request will return a list of all currently running jobs. Performing a POST (with the correct JSON) will create a new Job.
Example:
ajvb$ curl http://127.0.0.1:8000/api/v1/job/
{"jobs":{}}
ajvb$ curl http://127.0.0.1:8000/api/v1/job/ -d '{"epsilon": "PT5S", "command": "bash /home/ajvb/gocode/src/github.com/ajvb/kala/examples/example-kala-commands/example-command.sh", "name": "test_job", "schedule": "R2/2015-06-04T19:25:16.828696-07:00/PT10S"}'

}
}
}This route accepts both a GET and a DELETE, and is based off of the id of the Job. Performing a GET request will return a full JSON object describing the Job. Performing a DELETE will delete the Job.
