Lotlan-Scheduler 1.1.2

Scheduler for tasks generated from Lotlan files

LoTLan Scheduler

Scheduler for LoTLan tasks. Parses LoTLan files and accepts events defined in the files to schedule.

The repository for the LoTLan grammar can be found here

Task examples

You can find many LoTLan files / examples in the LoTLan Scheduler repository or in the official Documentation

Quickstart / Example

Here is an example how the scheduler can be used

import sys

from lotlan_scheduler.scheduler import LotlanScheduler
from lotlan_scheduler.api.event import Event

# gets called for each materialflow that is waiting for
# the triggeredBy condition to be satisfied
# event information contains info about the events in tb
def cb_triggered_by(mf_uuid, _uuid, event_information):
    print("cb_triggered_by from mf: " + str(mf_uuid))
    print("UUID: " + str(_uuid), "Event_Info: " + str(event_information))
    # foreach event in event_information

# gets called when triggeredBy condition is satisfied
# transport_orders contains the next transport orders which 
# can be executed
def cb_next_to(mf_uuid, transport_orders):
    print("cb_next_to from mf: " + str(mf_uuid))
    print(str(transport_orders))

# gets called for each materialflow that is waiting for
# the finishedBy condition to be satisfied
# event information contains info about the events in fb
def cb_finished_by(mf_uuid, _uuid, event_information):
    print("cb_finished_by from mf: " + str(mf_uuid))
    print("UUID: " + str(_uuid), "Event_Info: " + str(event_information))

# gets called if a task with the id _uuid has finished
def cb_task_finished(mf_uuid, _uuid):
    print("cb_task_finished from mf: " + str(mf_uuid))
    print("task with uuid " + str(_uuid) + " finished")

# gets called if every task is finished
# will never be called if the LoTLan file contains a cycle
def cb_all_finished(mf_uuid):
    print("cb_all_finished from mf: " + str(mf_uuid))
