CAE configuration file

Cinnamon Asynchronous Engine (CAE) is a flexible framework for asynchronous, server-based tasks. The functionality CAE should load and the exact behaviour are highly configurable. The configuration is maintained in a file CinnamonAsynchronousEngine.config.xml residing in CAE's program folder on the server.

The following shows the content of a simple configuration file, referencing only Open Source plugins:

<config>
  <log enablefile="false" enableconsole="false">/opt/cae/log</log>
  <tasks>
    <task name="summary_writer" assembly="CinnamonAEResources" type="StandardTaskDefinitions.SummaryWriter">
      <custom_data>
        <!-- summary writer configuration-->
      </custom_data>
    </task>
    <task name="wf_task_dispatcher" assembly="WorkflowEngine" type="AETaskDefinitions.WFTaskDispatcher">
      <custom_data>
        <!-- summary writer configuration-->
      </custom_data>
    </task>
    <task name="wf_auto_task_runner" assembly="WorkflowEngine" type="AETaskDefinitions.WFAutoTaskRunner">
      <custom_data>
        <!-- summary writer configuration-->
      </custom_data>
    </task>
    <!-- other tasks -->
  </tasks>
  
  <repository id="demo" name="demo">
    <username>cae</username>
    <server id="content" name="content">https:/my_server.cinnamon-hosting.de/cinnamon/cinnamon/legacy</server>
    <password>password</password>
    <thread_wait milliseconds="5000" />
    
    <jobs active="false">
      <tasks>
      </tasks>
    </jobs>
    
    <objects active="true">
      <query batch_size="100">
        <BooleanQuery minimumNumberShouldMatch="1">
          <Clause occurs="should">
            <TermQuery fieldName="metadatachanged">true</TermQuery>
          </Clause>
          <Clause occurs="should">
            <TermQuery fieldName="contentchanged">true</TermQuery>
          </Clause>
        </BooleanQuery>
      </query>
      <tasks>
        <task name="summary_writer" />
        <task name="wf_task_dispatcher" />
        <task name="wf_auto_task_runner" />
      </tasks>
    </objects>
    
    <folders active="false">
      <query batch_size="100">
        <TermQuery fieldName="metadatachanged">true</TermQuery>
      </query>
      <tasks>
      </tasks>
    </folders>
  </repository>
</config>

Inside the root element, there are three second-level elements:

• log, defining the logging behaviour.
• tasks, defining the task classes and their configurations (the configuration was replaced with a comment). The same class can be loaded multiple times with a different name.
• repository, defining the CAE login information and the task definitions to be applied.
