Class ApplicationIntegration

Namespace
ArcanaDevelopment.adTempus.Client
Assembly
ArcanaDevelopment.adTempus.Client.dll

Allows applications run by adTempus to interact with the adTempus server.

public sealed class ApplicationIntegration : IApplicationIntegration
Inheritance
object
ApplicationIntegration
Implements

Remarks

This class can only be used from applications that were started by an adTempus job. Attempting to use it from any other application will produce an error.

To use the class, call Connect to create a connection to the adTempus server.

Properties

Checkpoint

Gets or sets the Checkpoint for the job.

public string Checkpoint { get; set; }

Property Value

string

IsAvailable

Indicates whether the ApplicationIntegration system is available.

public static bool IsAvailable { get; }

Property Value

bool

Remarks

This returns true if the calling application is being run by adTempus, or false otherwise. If IsAvailable is false, calls to Connect will fail.

JobID

Gets the unique ID for the job definition.

public string JobID { get; }

Property Value

string

JobInstanceID

Gets the unique ID for this job instance.

public string JobInstanceID { get; }

Property Value

string

Remarks

This a GUID for the instance. For the instance number, use JobInstanceNumber.

JobInstanceNumber

Gets the instance number for this job instance.

public int? JobInstanceNumber { get; }

Property Value

int?

JobInstanceOID

The OID of the ExecutionHistoryItem representing this job instance.

public OID JobInstanceOID { get; }

Property Value

OID

JobOID

The OID of the Job being executed.

Property Value

OID

JobVariables

Gets the Job Variables for the job.

public IJobVariableDictionary JobVariables { get; }

Property Value

IJobVariableDictionary

Remarks

This collection contains all Job Variables currently defined for this job instance. You can add or modify variables, but those changes only affect this job instance--they are not permanent changes.

To quickly set or create a variable, use SetJobVariable.

Connect()

Establishes a connection to the adTempus server.

public static IApplicationIntegration Connect()

Returns

IApplicationIntegration

Remarks

Connects to the server and returns a new ApplicationIntegration object representing the connection. If the connection fails, throws an exception.

Connect(out Message)

Establishes a connection to the adTempus server.

public static IApplicationIntegration Connect(out Message failureMessage)

Parameters

NameTypeDescription
failureMessage Message

Returns

IApplicationIntegration

ExecuteOnDemandResponses(string)

Executes on-demand Responses defined for the job or step.

public void ExecuteOnDemandResponses(string eventTag)

Parameters

NameTypeDescription
eventTag string

The tag used to match Response Events.

Remarks

This method will invoke any Responses that have a ResponseEvent with type OnDemand and a CustomEventID that matches the eventTag.

Responses are invoked asynchronously (the script does not wait for completion of Response evaluation).

ExecuteOnDemandResponses(string, ResponseParameters)

Executes on-demand Responses defined for the job or step.

public void ExecuteOnDemandResponses(string eventTag, ResponseParameters parms)

Parameters

NameTypeDescription
eventTag string

The tag used to match Response Events.

parms ResponseParameters

Additional parameters for Response evaluation. Can be null.

Remarks

This method will invoke any Responses that have a ResponseEvent with type OnDemand and a CustomEventID that matches the eventTag.

Responses are invoked asynchronously (the script does not wait for completion of Response evaluation).

IsRunning()

Indicates whether the job step is still active.

public bool IsRunning()

Returns

bool

Remarks

The ApplicationIntegration connection is only valid while the job step it is running under is active. If you attempt to perform any operations after the step ends, they will throw an InvalidOperationContextException exception. Use IsRunning to see if the context is still valid.

LogDebug(string)

Logs a message to the Script Debug Log for the job.

public void LogDebug(string message)

Parameters

NameTypeDescription
message string

The message text.

Remarks

Equivalent to calling LogMessage with Debug.

See Also
LogMessage(MessageType, int, string)
LogInfo(string)
LogWarning(string)
LogError(string)

LogError(string)

Logs an Error message to the Job Log for the job.

public void LogError(string message)

Parameters

NameTypeDescription
message string

The message text.

Remarks

Equivalent to calling LogMessage with Error.

See Also
LogMessage(MessageType, int, string)
LogDebug(string)
LogInfo(string)
LogWarning(string)

LogInfo(string)

Logs an Informational message to the Job Log for the job.

public void LogInfo(string message)

Parameters

NameTypeDescription
message string

The message text.

Remarks

Equivalent to calling LogMessage with Informational.

See Also
LogMessage(MessageType, int, string)
LogDebug(string)

LogError(string)

LogMessage(MessageType, int, string)

Logs a message to the Job Log for the job.

public void LogMessage(MessageType messageType, int messageCode, string message)

Parameters

NameTypeDescription
messageType MessageType

The message type (severity)

messageCode int

The message code. Can be used to filter messages. Note: The value 100000 will be added to the messageCode when the message is recorded in adTempus.

message string

The message text.

Remarks

Each message logged with LogMessage creates a log message in the Job Log for the job and a record in the adTempus database. To avoid cluttering the job log and using large amounts of database space, use MessageType.Debug for debug-level messages. These messages will be written to the Job Detail Log instead of the main Job Log. The detail log is a single log file with detailed/diagnostic information for the job, available from the Captured Files list for the job.

public void LogMessage(MessageType messageType, string message)

Parameters

NameTypeDescription
messageType MessageType

The message type (severity)

message string

The message text.

Remarks

This method is equivalent to calling LogMessage(messageType, 0, message)

Each message logged with LogMessage creates a log message in the Job Log for the job and a record in the adTempus database. To avoid cluttering the job log and using large amounts of database space, use MessageType.Debug for debug-level messages. These messages will be written to the Job Detail Log instead of the main Job Log.

public string ReplaceVariableTokens(string sourceString)

Parameters

NameTypeDescription
sourceString string

The string to expand tokens in.

Returns

string

Remarks

This method replaces any valid variable tokens it finds with the corresponding values.

For example, if Job Variable "SomeVariable" has the value of "423", calling ReplaceVariableTokens("Current value: %SomeVariable%") returns the result "Current value: 423".

This method does not support the expansion of inline functions.
