reedworker

reedworker

job-board worker: retrieves a script by URL, writes the call arguments to a manifest and executes it. The script runs in its own interpreter, arguments are passed through a JSON manifest, and the caller blocks until the job finishes.

Usage

from reedworker import run

rc = run(
    url="https://your-board.example/jobs/task.py",
    budget=3600,
)

url is the only required argument; every extra keyword is forwarded to the job through the manifest. run returns the job's exit code.

Notes

• The job script is executed out-of-process; it is never evaluated inside this package.
• Fetching retries a handful of times on transient network errors and fails fast otherwise.
• No third-party dependencies.
