Description
Current Situation
- The API provides no possibility to retrieve orders from job chains.
Workaround
- Use of the XML command <show_job_chain/> to retrieve the orders of a job chain.
- Use of the XML command <modify_order/> to change order attributes and e.g. to start an order via <modify_order at="now"/>
Desired Situation
- Retrieve specific order from a job chain:
var job_chain = spooler.job_chain("/my_chain"); var order = job_chain.get_order("my_order");
Maintainer Notes
- Modifications to an order that is not handled by the current task are not persistent, i.e. they will be lost in case of a JobScheduler restart. Therefore we will not develop this feature for the JobScheduler API.
- Instead, this feature will be resumed for use with Web Services.
