# FILE CHANGE HISTORY:
# [2011-12-07]: Updated to support new Helios::Logger API. Added
# %INIT_LOG_CLASSES global. Completely rewrote logMsg() method. Updated
# logMsg() documentation.
# [2011-12-07]: Updated copyright info.
# [2011-12-07]: Removed parseArgXML() method (redundant).
# [2011-12-28]: Removed unnecessary 'use XML::Parser' line.
# [2011-12-28]: Replaced metajob running code in work() with new runMetajob()
# method.
# [2011-12-28]: work(): changed so CACHED_CONFIG and
# CACHED_CONFIG_RETRIEVAL_COUNT only print to STDOUT if debug() is set.
# [2011-12-28]: Updated copyright info.
# [2012-01-01]: Renamed runMetajob() method to metarun().
# [2012-01-01]: work(): replaced old code calling the service class's run()
# method. New code: 1) calls run() or metarun() as appropriate, 2) ignores
# value returned by run() and metarun() unless DOWNSHIFT_ON_NONZERO_RUN
# parameter is set, 3) is wrapped in an eval {} to catch uncaught exceptions
# a service class's run() might throw, forcing the job to failure. Updated
# work() documenation for new functionality.
# [2012-01-01]: Updated copyright info for new year.
# [2012-01-04]: Fixed max_retries() and retry_delay() so they actually pay
# attention to MaxRetries() and RetryInterval(). In the original code they
# didn't, and MaxRetries() and RetryInterval() did not work as documented.
# [2012-01-08]: work(): explicitly return 0 to the calling routine.
# [2012-03-27]: Reorganized use module lines. Removed unnecessary TheSchwartz &
# TheSchwartz::Job lines.
# [2012-03-27]: work(): added debugging code for new driver and logger code.
# [2012-03-27]: work(): changed try {} to eval {}.
# [2012-03-27]: prep(): Replaced old prep() method with new version that
# starts new logger and config initialization.
# [2012-03-27]: jobsWaiting(): changed quote operator for query from heredoc
# to qq{}
# [2012-03-27]: added new setDriver() and initDriver() methods. Replaced
# getDriver() method with new one that uses setDriver() and initDriver().
# [2012-03-27]: added initLoggers() method to handle logger module
# initialization.
# [2012-04-25]: added deferredJob() method.
# [2012-05-20]: work: removed driver and logger debugging code. Removed
# comment about removing a debug message before release (it is useful to leave
# that debugging message in).
# [2012-05-20]: dbConnect(): removed old commented-out code.
# [LH] [2012-07-11]: Switched use line for Data::ObjectDriver::Driver::DBI to
# load Helios::ObjectDriver::DBI to start integration of database connection
# caching.
# [LH] [2012-07-15]: Changed prep() to use new Helios::Config class. Removed
# 'use Config::IniFiles' because with Helios::Config it's redundant.
# [LH] [2012-07-15]: replaced most of dbConnect() code to implement fork-safe
# database connection creation and sharing.
# [LH] [2012-07-15]: replaced most of jobWaiting() code for simplicity and to
# replace try{} with eval {}.
# [LH] [2012-07-15]: replaced most of getFuncidFromDb() code to change try{}
# to eval{} and eliminate indirect object notation.
# [LH] [2012-07-16]: getFuncidFromDb(): fixed identation of new code.
# [LH] [2012-07-16]: updated copyright notices (added Logical Helion, LLC to
# main COPYRIGHT section).
# [LH] [2012-08-04]: removed 'use Error' line as all of the try {} blocks have
# been replaced with eval {}.
# [LH] [2012-08-04]: replaced getConfigFromIni() and getConfigFromDb() with
# versions that use the new Helios::Config API. Changed POD for both to note
# the methods are deprecated.
# [LH] [2012-08-04]: added new initConfig() method to manage Helios::Config
# module initialization.
# [LH] [2012-08-04]: added blank default ConfigClass() method.
# [LH] [2012-08-04]: dbConnect(): updated to better handle "options" directives
# and improve connection code. Updated dbConnect() POD.
# [LH] [2012-08-04]: Reformatted copyright notices for clarity.
# [LH] [2012-08-07]: further changes to getConfigFromIni() and
# getConfigFromDb() to work with Helios::Config API.
# [LH] [2012-09-05]: removed old commented out code from getConfigFromIni(),
# getConfigFromDb(), getFuncidFromDb(), dbConnect().
# [LH] [2012-09-05]: Added to POD entry for getFuncidFromDb().
# [LH] [2012-11-06]: Added _require_module() method to safely load modules at
# runtime.

# job initialization error handling.
# [LH] [2013-10-04]: Added code to start conversion to new Helios class
# structure and support virtual jobtypes feature. New new() constructor
# initializes attribute hashref values and can only be called as a class
# method. Added set/get/addJobType(), set/getAltJobTypes(),
# set/getAltJobtypeids(), addAltJobtypeid(), lookupJobtypeid(),
# lookupAltJobtypeids(). Switched all code that used TheSchwartz::FuncMap to
# use Helios::JobType. Replaced set/getFuncid() with new version that mirrors
# set/getJobType() (set/getFuncid() will be deprecated on final release).
# Replaced jobsWaiting() with new version that uses Helios::JobType and scans
# for all jobtypes (primary and alternates) if alternate jobtypes are set.
# [LH] [2013-10-04]: Removed 'require XML::Simple' line because Helios::Service
# has not used that in a long time.
# [LH] [2013-10-18]: Added grab_for() and JobLockInterval() to implement new

# rather than undef to eliminate some warnings.
=head1 NAME
Helios::Service - base class for services in the Helios job processing system
=head1 DESCRIPTION
Helios::Service is the base class for all services intended to be run by the
Helios parallel job processing system. It handles the underlying TheSchwartz job queue system and
provides additional methods to handle configuration, job argument parsing, logging, and other
functions.
A Helios::Service subclass must implement only one method: the run() method. The run() method
will be passed a Helios::Job object representing the job to performed. The run() method should
mark the job as completed successfully, failed, or permanently failed (by calling completedJob(),
failedJob(), or failedJobPermanent(), respectively) before it ends.
=head1 TheSchwartz HANDLING METHODS
The following 3 methods are used by the underlying TheSchwartz job queuing
system to determine what work is to be performed and, if a job fails, how it
should be retried.
YOU DO NOT NEED TO TOUCH THESE METHODS TO CREATE HELIOS SERVICES. These
methods manage interaction between Helios and TheSchwartz. You only need to
be concerned with these methods if you are attempting to extend core Helios
functionality.
=head2 max_retries()
Controls how many times a job will be retried.
=head2 retry_delay()
Controls how long (in secs) before a failed job will be retried.
These two methods should return the number of times a job can be retried if it fails and the
minimum interval between those retries, respectively. If you don't define them in your subclass,
they default to zero, and your job(s) will not be retried if they fail.
=head2 work()
The work() method is the method called by the underlying TheSchwartz::Worker (which in turn is
called by the helios.pl service daemon) to perform the work of a job. Effectively, work() sets
up the worker process for the Helios job, and then calls the service subclass's run() method to
run it.
The work() method is passed a job object from the underlying TheSchwartz job queue system. The
service class is instantiated, and the the job is recast into a Helios::Job object. The service's
configuration parameters are read from the system and made available as a hashref via the
getConfig() method. The job's arguments are parsed from XML into a Perl hashref, and made
available via the job object's getArgs() method. Then the service object's run() method is
called, and is passed the Helios::Job object.
Once the run() method has completed the job and returned, work() determines
whether the worker process should exit or stay running. If OVERDRIVE mode is
enabled and the service hasn't been HALTed or told to HOLD, the worker process
will stay running, and work() will be called to setup and run another job. If
the service is not in OVERDRIVE mode, the worker process will exit.

=head2 metarun($job)
Given a metajob, the metarun() method runs the job, returning 0 if the
metajob was successful and nonzero otherwise.
This is the default metarun() for Helios. In the default Helios system,
metajobs consist of multiple simple jobs. These jobs are defined in the
metajob's argument XML at job submission time. The metarun() method will
burst the metajob apart into its constituent jobs, which are then run by
another service.
Metajobs' primary use in the base Helios system is to speed the job submission
process of large job batches. One metajob containing a batch of thousands of
jobs can be submitted and burst apart by the system much faster than thousands
of individual jobs can be submitted. In addition, the faster jobs enter the
job queue, the faster Helios workers can be launched to handle them. If you
have thousands (or tens of thousands, or more) of jobs to run, especially if
you are running your service in OVERDRIVE mode, you should use metajobs to
greatly increase system throughput.

get/setJobType()
get/setAltJobTypes(), addAltJobType()
get/setJobTypeid()
get/setAltJobtypeids(), addAltJobtypeid()
errstr()
debug()
Most of these are handled behind the scenes simply by calling the prep() method.
After calling prep(), calling getConfig() will return a hashref of all the configuration parameters
relevant to this service class on this host.
If debug mode is enabled (the HELIOS_DEBUG env var is set to 1), debug() will return a true value,
otherwise, it will be false. Some of the Helios::Service methods will honor this value and log
extra debugging messages either to the console or the Helios log (helios_log_tb table). You can
also use it within your own service classes to enable/disable debugging messages or behaviors.

=head1 INTERNAL SERVICE CLASS METHODS
When writing normal Helios services, the methods listed in this section will
have already been dealt with before your run() method is called. If you are
extending Helios itself or instantiating a Helios service outside of Helios
(for example, to retrieve a service's config params), you may be interested in
some of these, primarily the prep() method.
=head2 prep()
The prep() method is designed to call all the various setup routines needed to
get the service ready to do useful work. It:
=over 4
=item *
Pulls in the contents of the HELIOS_DEBUG and HELIOS_INI env vars, and sets the appropriate
instance variables if necessary.
=item *
Calls the getConfigFromIni() method to read the appropriate configuration parameters from the
INI file.
=item *
Calls the getConfigFromDb() method to read the appropriate configuration parameters from the
Helios database.
=back
Normally it returns a true value if successful, but if one of the getConfigFrom*() methods throws
an exception, that exception will be raised to your calling routine.

=head2 getConfigFromIni([$inifile]) DEPRECATED
The getConfigFromIni() method opens the helios.ini file, grabs global params and config params relevant to
the current service class, and returns them in a hash to the calling routine. It also sets the class's
internal {config} hashref, so the config parameters are available via the getConfig() method.
Typically service classes will call this once near the start of processing to pick up any relevant
parameters from the helios.ini file. However, calling the prep() method takes care of this for
you, and is the preferred method.

=head2 getConfigFromDb() DEPRECATED
The getConfigFromDb() method connects to the Helios database, retrieves config params relevant to the
current service class, and returns them in a hash to the calling routine. It also sets the class's
internal {config} hashref, so the config parameters are available via the getConfig() method.
Typically service classes will call this once near the start of processing to pick up any relevant
parameters from the helios.ini file. However, calling the prep() method takes care of this for
you.
There's an important subtle difference between getConfigFromIni() and getConfigFromDb():
getConfigFromIni() erases any previously set parameters from the class's internal {config} hash,
while getConfigFromDb() merely updates it. This is due to the way helios.pl uses the methods:
the INI file is only read once, while the database is repeatedly checked for configuration
updates. For individual service classes, the best thing to do is just call the prep() method; it
will take care of things for the most part.

=head2 getFuncidFromDb() [DEPRECATED]
Queries the collective database for the funcid of the service class and
returns it to the calling routine. The service name used in the query is the
value returned from the getJobType() accessor method.
This method is most commonly used by helios.pl to get the funcid associated
with a particular service class, so it can scan the job table for waiting jobs.
If their are jobs for the service waiting, helios.pl may launch new worker
processes to perform these jobs.
As of Helios 2.80, getFuncidFromDb() has been replaced by lookupJobtypeid().
This method is thus deprecated.

=head2 lookupAltJobtypeids(@jobtypenames)
The lookupAltJobtypeids() method uses the lookupJobtypeid() method to determine
the jobtypeids of all of the service instance's alternate jobtypes. If given
a list of jobtype names, these will override any jobtypes previously set with
the setAltJobTypes() or addAltJobType() methods.
Usually, "alternate" jobtypes and jobtypes specified on the helios.pl
command line using the --jobtypes option. The "primary" jobtype is the jobtype
matching the service class's name.

=head2 lookupJobtypeid($jobtypename)

Creates a Data::ObjectDriver object connected to the Helios database and
returns it to the calling routine. Normally called by getDriver() if an

=head2 dbConnect($dsn, $user, $password, $options)
Method to connect to a database in a "safe" way. If the connection parameters
are not specified, a connection to the Helios collective database will be
returned. If a connection to the given database already exists, dbConnect()
will return a database handle to the existing connection rather than create a
new connection.
The dbConnect() method uses the DBI->connect_cached() method to reuse database
connections and thus reduce open connections to your database (often important
when you potentially have hundreds of active worker processes working in a
Helios collective). It "tags" the connections it creates with the current PID
to prevent reusing a connection that was established by a parent process.
That, combined with helios.pl clearing connections after the fork() to create
a worker process, should allow for safe database connection/disconnection in
a forking environment.

=head2 logMsg([$job,] [$priority_level,] $message)
Given a message to log, an optional priority level, and an optional Helios::Job
object, logMsg() will record the message in the logging systems that have been
configured. The internal Helios logging system is the only system enabled by
default.
In addition to the log message, there are two optional parameters:
=over 4
=item $job
The current Helios::Job object being processed. If specified, the jobid will
be logged in the database along with the message.
=item $priority
The priority level of the message as defined by Helios::LogEntry::Levels.
These are really integers, but if you import Helios::LogEntry::Levels (with the
:all tag) into your namespace, your logMsg() calls will be much more readable.
There are 8 log priority levels, corresponding (for historical reasons) to
the log priorities defined by Sys::Syslog:
name priority
LOG_EMERG 0
LOG_ALERT 1
LOG_CRIT 2
LOG_ERR 3
LOG_WARNING 4
LOG_NOTICE 5
LOG_INFO 6
LOG_DEBUG 7
LOG_DEBUG, LOG_INFO, LOG_NOTICE, LOG_WARNING, and LOG_ERR are the most common
used by Helios itself; LOG_INFO is the default.
=back
The host, process id, and service class are automatically recorded with your log
message. If you supplied either a Helios::Job object or a priority level, these
will also be recorded with your log message.
This method returns a true value if successful and throws a
Helios::Error::LoggingError if errors occur.
=head3 LOGGING SYSTEM CONFIGURATION
Several parameters are available to configure Helios logging. Though these
options can be set either in helios.ini or in the Ctrl Panel, it is B<strongly>
recommended these options only be set in helios.ini. Changing logging
configurations on-the-fly could potentially cause a Helios service (and
possibly your whole collective) to become unstable!
The following options can be set in either a [global] section or in an
application section of your helios.ini file.
=head4 loggers
loggers=HeliosX::Logger::Syslog,HeliosX::Logger::Log4perl
A comma delimited list of interface classes to external logging systems. Each
of these classes should implement (or otherwise extend) the Helios::Logger
class. Each class will have its own configuration parameters to
set; consult the documentation for the interface class you're trying to
configure.
=head4 internal_logger
internal_logger=on|off
Whether to enable the internal Helios logging system as well as the loggers
specified with the 'loggers=' line above. The default is on. If set to off,
the only logging your service will do will be to the external logging systems.
=head4 log_priority_threshold
log_priority_threshold=1|2|3|4|5|6
You can specify a logging threshold to better control the
logging of your service on-the-fly. Unlike the above parameters,
log_priority_threshold can be safely specified in your Helios Ctrl Panel.
Specifying a 'log_priority_threshold' config parameter in your helios.ini or
Ctrl Panel will cause log messages of a lower priority (higher numeric value)
to be discarded. For example, a line in your helios.ini like:
log_priority_threshold=6
will cause any log messages of priority 7 (LOG_DEBUG) to be discarded.
This configuration option is supported by the internal Helios logger
(Helios::Logger::Internal). Other Helios::Logger systems may or may not
support it; check the documentation of the logging module you plan to use.
If anything goes wrong with calling the configured loggers' logMsg() methods,
this method will attempt to catch the error and log it to the
Helios::Logger::Internal internal logger. It will then rethrow the error
as a Helios::Error::LoggingError exception.

This method sets up the Helios::Logger subclass's configuration by calling
setConfig(), setHostname(), setJobType(), and setDriver(). It then calls the
logger's init() method to finish the initialization phase of the logging class.
This method will throw a Helios::Error::Logging error if anything goes wrong
with the initialization of a logger class. It will also attempt to fall back
to the Helios::Logger::Internal logger to attempt to log the initialization
error.

# BEGIN CODE Copyright (C) 2013 by Logical Helion, LLC.
=head2 MaxRetries(), RetryInterval(), and JobLockInterval()
The MaxRetries(), RetryInterval(), and JobLockInterval() methods specify to
Helios the number of reattempts it should make at running a job and the
frequency of those attempts. If you don't define these, jobs will not be
retried if they fail.
MaxRetries() is straightforward; set it to the number of times you want a job
to be retried if it fails.
RetryInterval() is the amount of time (in seconds) to wait after a job fails
before a job is available to try again.
JobLockInterval() is the amount of time (in seconds) a job is locked for
processing. This amount of time should be enough time to make sure a job can
be completed or at marked as failed. The default is 3600 sec (1 hour).
RetryInterval() and JobLockInterval() can interact in an odd way: for example,
if you want to retry a job every 60 secs, you can add:
sub RetryInterval { 60 }
to your service class. However, your jobs will still be locked for an hour,
because 3600 is the JobLockInterval() default. If you want to retry jobs
more frequently than a hour, you need to add a JobLockInterval() method to
your service class as well as a RetryInterval() method. So, to retry jobs
every 60 secs, add both of the following methods to your service class:
sub RetryInterval { 60 }
sub JobLockInterval { 60 }
Keep in mind this will reduce the amount of time available for your service to
mark a job as completed or failed. If it has not done so by the time the
JobLockInterval() value has expired, the job will be seen by the Helios system
as available for processing again, and another worker process will pick up and
attempt to run the job. So always make sure your JobLockInterval() allows
enough time to actually complete a job. Another rule of thumb is to set
RetryInterval() and JobLockInterval() to the same value if RetryInterval() is
less than 3600.

=head2 JobClass()
Defines which job class to instantiate the job as. The default is Helios::Job,
which should be fine for most purposes. If necessary, however, you can create
a subclass of Helios::Job and set your JobClass() method to return that
subclass's name. The service's work() method will instantiate the job as an
instance of the class you specified rather than the base Helios::Job.
NOTE: Please remember that "jobs" in Helios are most often only used to convey
arguments to services, and usually only contain enough logic to properly parse
those arguments and mark jobs as completed. It should be rare to need to
extend the Helios::Job object. OTOH, if you are attempting to extend Helios
itself to provide new abilities and not just writing a normal Helios
application, you can use JobClass() to use your extended job class rather than
the default.

=head2 ConfigClass()
Defines which configuration class to use to parse your service's
configuration. The default is Helios::Config, which should work fine for most
applications. If necessary, you can create a subclass of Helios::Config and
set your ConfigClass() method to return that subclass's name. The service's
prep() method will initialize your custom config class and use it to parse your
service's configuration information.
See the L<Helios::Config> documentation for more information about creating
custom config classes.
