Spring Batch: Running a Batch Job Explained
To run a batch job, a JobLauncher needs a batch JobConfiguration and JobParameters. This creates a JobInstance.
Batch Processing
Spring Batch: Creating a Custom Job Builder
Batch jobs are created in Spring Batch using the JobBuilderFactory. A custom job builder factory can be created and re-used to allow common job configurations to be shared across all batch jobs in a project.
Spring Batch: Trigger an Action When a Batch Job Fails
When a batch job fails it’s useful to automatically send a notification or trigger some sort of an action.
Spring Batch: Restart a Failed Batch Job Using an API Endpoint
An key thing to remember in Spring Batch is that an instance of a Spring Batch job can only be restarted if it FAILED. If the job completeds SUCCESSFULLY a new instance of the job will have to be created to run it again.
Spring Batch: Chunk Size
In Spring Batch, when configuring a step you can set the chunk size.
Spring Batch: Running Batch Jobs Asynchronously
When running multiple batch jobs in Spring Batch, the default JobLauncher waits to launch a job until the previous job running is COMPLETE. In order to run multiple batch jobs simultaneously, the JobLauncher must be configured to run jobs asynchronously.
Spring Batch: Limit How Frequent a Batch Job Runs
Often in designing batch jobs you want to limit the frequency that a job can run. For example, if you want a batch job to run once a day, you can use @Scheduled annotation to run the batch job once a day. This is enough if you only run one instance of the batch program and there are no other ways to launch the job.
Spring Batch: Sharing Batch Step Configurations
When defining a Spring batch step, often common configurations are added to almost every step. In order to not violate DRY (Don’t Repeat Yourself), a StepBuilder can be customized upstream with all the shared configurations.
Spring Batch: Query All the Steps of a Batch Job
In Spring Batch, in order to get the job_execution_id of the last batch job instance for a given batch job name use this query:
