This module provides an API for queued asynchronous jobs that have a high chance of failing and
subsequently need to be retried. The possibilities of defining the way retries are scheduled are pretty much endless.
If you want to use this module, you need to implement 2 things. First of all job_scheduler_retry_job_scheduler_retry_info()
allows you to define your queues and the way you want to retry items. See job_scheduler_retry_api.inc for documentation
on that hook.
Secondly, you need to add items to your queues. Here is an example of that:
We want to call your_module_your_method($param1, $param2);
If that method succeeds, we want to hand the job over to
$job = array(
'callback_main_function' => 'your_module_your_method',
'callback_main_function_arguments' => array ($param1, $param2),
'callback_success_function' => 'your_module_your_method_success',
'callback_error_function' => 'your_module_your_method_success_error',
'something' => 'You can add items to the job that you need later',
// If you install the advanced_queues module, all items in the advanced_queue table
// have a title field. You can show that field in views, which can be handy
'title' => $unique_id,
);
// firstqueue is defined by you in your implementation of hook_job_scheduler_retry_info()
$queue = DrupalQueue::get('firstqueue');
$queue->createItem($job);
This module is a pure API module. If there is no module that requires you to install this, then there is no use for you to do so.
This module requires the job_scheduler and Advanced Queue modules.
