@moxoff/gnappo v1.2.2

Gnappo

HTTP API to manage long running jobs

Usage

There's no need to install this module or to clone the repository.

You can simply run:

npx @moxoff/gnappo --run PATH_TO_YOUR_EXECUTABLE --mongodb-url mongodb://HOST:PORT/DB

When a job is submitted the executable will be called with two positional arguments:

• the path where it can find the input json
• the path where it needs to save the output json (if any)

Note: If you enable authentication in mongodb by using the official docker image and the env variables MONGO_INITDB_ROOT_USERNAME, MONGO_INITDB_ROOT_PASSWORD and MONGO_INITDB_DATABASE, you can need to use the authSource option in the mongo url:

npx @moxoff/gnappo \
    --run PATH_TO_YOUR_EXECUTABLE \
    --mongodb-url mongodb://MONGO_INITDB_ROOT_USERNAME:MONGO_INITDB_ROOT_PASSWORD@HOST:PORT/MONGO_INITDB_DATABASE?authSource=admin

this is because MONGO_INITDB_ROOT_USERNAME is created in the admin database and not in MONGO_INITDB_DATABASE.
