This addon adds an integrated Job Queue to Odoo.
It allows to postpone method calls executed asynchronously.
Jobs are executed in the background by a ``Jobrunner``, in their own transaction.
Example:
.. code-block:: python
from odoo import models, fields, api
class MyModel(models.Model):
_name = 'my.model'
def my_method(self, a, k=None):
_logger.info('executed with a: %s and k: %s', a, k)
class MyOtherModel(models.Model):
_name = 'my.other.model'
def button_do_stuff(self):
self.env['my.model'].with_delay().my_method('a', k=2)
In the snippet of code above, when we call ``button_do_stuff``, a job **capturing
the method and arguments** will be postponed. It will be executed as soon as the
Jobrunner has a free bucket, which can be instantaneous if no other job is
running.
Features:
* Views for jobs, jobs are stored in PostgreSQL
* Jobrunner: execute the jobs, highly efficient thanks to PostgreSQL's NOTIFY
* Channels: give a capacity for the root channel and its sub-channels and
segregate jobs in them. Allow for instance to restrict heavy jobs to be
executed one at a time while little ones are executed 4 at a times.
* Retries: Ability to retry jobs by raising a type of exception
* Retry Pattern: the 3 first tries, retry after 10 seconds, the 5 next tries,
retry after 1 minutes, ...
* Job properties: priorities, estimated time of arrival (ETA), custom
description, number of retries
* Related Actions: link an action on the job view, such as open the record
concerned by the job

Installation
============
Be sure to have the ``requests`` library.
Configuration
=============
* Using environment variables and command line:
* Adjust environment variables (optional):
- ``ODOO_QUEUE_JOB_CHANNELS=root:4`` or any other channels configuration.
The default is ``root:1``
- if ``xmlrpc_port`` is not set: ``ODOO_QUEUE_JOB_PORT=8069``
* Start Odoo with ``--load=web,queue_job``
and ``--workers`` greater than 1. [1]_
* Using the Odoo configuration file:
.. code-block:: ini
[options]
(...)
workers = 6
server_wide_modules = web,queue_job
(...)
[queue_job]
channels = root:2
* Confirm the runner is starting correctly by checking the odoo log file:
.. code-block::
...INFO...queue_job.jobrunner.runner: starting
...INFO...queue_job.jobrunner.runner: initializing database connections
...INFO...queue_job.jobrunner.runner: queue job runner ready for db <dbname>
...INFO...queue_job.jobrunner.runner: database connections ready
* Create jobs (eg using ``base_import_async``) and observe they
start immediately and in parallel.
* Tip: to enable debug logging for the queue job, use
``--log-handler=odoo.addons.queue_job:DEBUG``
.. [1] It works with the threaded Odoo server too, although this way
of running Odoo is obviously not for production purposes.
Usage
=====
To use this module, you need to:
#. Go to ``Job Queue`` menu

Delaying jobs
-------------
The fast way to enqueue a job for a method is to use ``with_delay()`` on a record
or model:
.. code-block:: python
def button_done(self):
self.with_delay().print_confirmation_document(self.state)
self.write({"state": "done"})
return True
Here, the method ``print_confirmation_document()`` will be executed asynchronously
as a job. ``with_delay()`` can take several parameters to define more precisely how
the job is executed (priority, ...).
All the arguments passed to the method being delayed are stored in the job and
passed to the method when it is executed asynchronously, including ``self``, so
the current record is maintained during the job execution (warning: the context
is not kept).
Dependencies can be expressed between jobs. To start a graph of jobs, use ``delayable()``
on a record or model. The following is the equivalent of ``with_delay()`` but using the
long form:
.. code-block:: python
def button_done(self):
delayable = self.delayable()
delayable.print_confirmation_document(self.state)
delayable.delay()
self.write({"state": "done"})
return True
Methods of Delayable objects return itself, so it can be used as a builder pattern,
which in some cases allow to build the jobs dynamically:
.. code-block:: python
def button_generate_simple_with_delayable(self):
self.ensure_one()
# Introduction of a delayable object, using a builder pattern
# allowing to chain jobs or set properties. The delay() method
# on the delayable object actually stores the delayable objects
# in the queue_job table
(
self.delayable()
.generate_thumbnail((50, 50))
.set(priority=30)
.set(description=_("generate xxx"))
.delay()
)
The simplest way to define a dependency is to use ``.on_done(job)`` on a Delayable:
.. code-block:: python
def button_chain_done(self):
self.ensure_one()
job1 = self.browse(1).delayable().generate_thumbnail((50, 50))
job2 = self.browse(1).delayable().generate_thumbnail((50, 50))
job3 = self.browse(1).delayable().generate_thumbnail((50, 50))
# job 3 is executed when job 2 is done which is executed when job 1 is done
job1.on_done(job2.on_done(job3)).delay()
Delayables can be chained to form more complex graphs using the ``chain()`` and
``group()`` primitives.
A chain represents a sequence of jobs to execute in order, a group represents
jobs which can be executed in parallel. Using ``chain()`` has the same effect as
using several nested ``on_done()`` but is more readable. Both can be combined to
form a graph, for instance we can group [A] of jobs, which blocks another group
[B] of jobs. When and only when all the jobs of the group [A] are executed, the
jobs of the group [B] are executed. The code would look like:
.. code-block:: python
from odoo.addons.queue_job.delay import group, chain
def button_done(self):
group_a = group(self.delayable().method_foo(), self.delayable().method_bar())
group_b = group(self.delayable().method_baz(1), self.delayable().method_baz(2))
chain(group_a, group_b).delay()
self.write({"state": "done"})
return True
When a failure happens in a graph of jobs, the execution of the jobs that depend on the
failed job stops. They remain in a state ``wait_dependencies`` until their "parent" job is
successful. This can happen in two ways: either the parent job retries and is successful
on a second try, either the parent job is manually "set to done" by a user. In these two
cases, the dependency is resolved and the graph will continue to be processed. Alternatively,
the failed job and all its dependent jobs can be canceled by a user. The other jobs of the
graph that do not depend on the failed job continue their execution in any case.
Note: ``delay()`` must be called on the delayable, chain, or group which is at the top
of the graph. In the example above, if it was called on ``group_a``, then ``group_b``
would never be delayed (but a warning would be shown).
Enqueing Job Options
--------------------
* priority: default is 10, the closest it is to 0, the faster it will be
executed
* eta: Estimated Time of Arrival of the job. It will not be executed before this
date/time
* max_retries: default is 5, maximum number of retries before giving up and set
the job state to 'failed'. A value of 0 means infinite retries.
* description: human description of the job. If not set, description is computed
from the function doc or method name
* channel: the complete name of the channel to use to process the function. If
specified it overrides the one defined on the function
* identity_key: key uniquely identifying the job, if specified and a job with
the same key has not yet been run, the new job will not be created
Configure default options for jobs
----------------------------------
In earlier versions, jobs could be configured using the ``@job`` decorator.
This is now obsolete, they can be configured using optional ``queue.job.function``
and ``queue.job.channel`` XML records.
Example of channel:
.. code-block:: XML
<record id="channel_sale" model="queue.job.channel">
<field name="name">sale</field>
<field name="parent_id" ref="queue_job.channel_root" />
</record>
Example of job function:
.. code-block:: XML
<record id="job_function_sale_order_action_done" model="queue.job.function">
<field name="model_id" ref="sale.model_sale_order" />
<field name="method">action_done</field>
<field name="channel_id" ref="channel_sale" />
<field name="related_action" eval='{"func_name": "custom_related_action"}' />
<field name="retry_pattern" eval="{1: 60, 2: 180, 3: 10, 5: 300}" />
</record>
The general form for the ``name`` is: ``<model.name>.method``.
The channel, related action and retry pattern options are optional, they are
documented below.
When writing modules, if 2+ modules add a job function or channel with the same
name (and parent for channels), they'll be merged in the same record, even if
they have different xmlids. On uninstall, the merged record is deleted when all
the modules using it are uninstalled.
**Job function: model**
If the function is defined in an abstract model, you can not write
``<field name="model_id" ref="xml_id_of_the_abstract_model"</field>``
but you have to define a function for each model that inherits from the abstract model.
**Job function: channel**
The channel where the job will be delayed. The default channel is ``root``.
**Job function: related action**
The *Related Action* appears as a button on the Job's view.
The button will execute the defined action.
The default one is to open the view of the record related to the job (form view
when there is a single record, list view for several records).
In many cases, the default related action is enough and doesn't need
customization, but it can be customized by providing a dictionary on the job
function:
.. code-block:: python
{
"enable": False,
"func_name": "related_action_partner",
"kwargs": {"name": "Partner"},
}
* ``enable``: when ``False``, the button has no effect (default: ``True``)
* ``func_name``: name of the method on ``queue.job`` that returns an action
* ``kwargs``: extra arguments to pass to the related action method
Example of related action code:
.. code-block:: python
class QueueJob(models.Model):
_inherit = 'queue.job'
def related_action_partner(self, name):
self.ensure_one()
model = self.model_name
partner = self.records
action = {
'name': name,
'type': 'ir.actions.act_window',
'res_model': model,
'view_type': 'form',
'view_mode': 'form',
'res_id': partner.id,
}
return action
**Job function: retry pattern**
When a job fails with a retryable error type, it is automatically
retried later. By default, the retry is always 10 minutes later.
A retry pattern can be configured on the job function. What a pattern represents
is "from X tries, postpone to Y seconds". It is expressed as a dictionary where
keys are tries and values are seconds to postpone as integers:
.. code-block:: python
{
1: 10,
5: 20,
10: 30,
15: 300,
}
Based on this configuration, we can tell that:
* 5 first retries are postponed 10 seconds later
* retries 5 to 10 postponed 20 seconds later
* retries 10 to 15 postponed 30 seconds later
* all subsequent retries postponed 5 minutes later
**Job Context**
The context of the recordset of the job, or any recordset passed in arguments of
a job, is transferred to the job according to an allow-list.
The default allow-list is empty for backward compatibility. The allow-list can
be customized in ``Base._job_prepare_context_before_enqueue_keys``.
Example:
.. code-block:: python
class Base(models.AbstractModel):
_inherit = "base"
@api.model
def _job_prepare_context_before_enqueue_keys(self):
"""Keys to keep in context of stored jobs
Empty by default for backward compatibility.
"""
return ("tz", "lang", "allowed_company_ids", "force_company", "active_test")
**Bypass jobs on running Odoo**
When you are developing (ie: connector modules) you might want
to bypass the queue job and run your code immediately.
To do so you can set `TEST_QUEUE_JOB_NO_DELAY=1` in your enviroment.
**Bypass jobs in tests**
When writing tests on job-related methods is always tricky to deal with
delayed recordsets. To make your testing life easier
you can set `test_queue_job_no_delay=True` in the context.
Tip: you can do this at test case level like this
.. code-block:: python
@classmethod
def setUpClass(cls):
super().setUpClass()
cls.env = cls.env(context=dict(
cls.env.context,
test_queue_job_no_delay=True, # no jobs thanks
))
Then all your tests execute the job methods synchronously
without delaying any jobs.
Testing
-------
**Asserting enqueued jobs**
The recommended way to test jobs, rather than running them directly and synchronously is to
split the tests in two parts:
* one test where the job is mocked (trap jobs with ``trap_jobs()`` and the test
only verifies that the job has been delayed with the expected arguments
* one test that only calls the method of the job synchronously, to validate the
proper behavior of this method only
Proceeding this way means that you can prove that jobs will be enqueued properly
at runtime, and it ensures your code does not have a different behavior in tests
and in production (because running your jobs synchronously may have a different
behavior as they are in the same transaction / in the middle of the method).
Additionally, it gives more control on the arguments you want to pass when
calling the job's method (synchronously, this time, in the second type of
tests), and it makes tests smaller.
The best way to run such assertions on the enqueued jobs is to use
``odoo.addons.queue_job.tests.common.trap_jobs()``.
Inside this context manager, instead of being added in the database's queue,
jobs are pushed in an in-memory list. The context manager then provides useful
helpers to verify that jobs have been enqueued with the expected arguments. It
even can run the jobs of its list synchronously! Details in
``odoo.addons.queue_job.tests.common.JobsTester``.
A very small example (more details in ``tests/common.py``):
.. code-block:: python
# code
def my_job_method(self, name, count):
self.write({"name": " ".join([name] * count)
def method_to_test(self):
count = self.env["other.model"].search_count([])
self.with_delay(priority=15).my_job_method("Hi!", count=count)
return count
# tests
from odoo.addons.queue_job.tests.common import trap_jobs
# first test only check the expected behavior of the method and the proper
# enqueuing of jobs
def test_method_to_test(self):
with trap_jobs() as trap:
result = self.env["model"].method_to_test()
expected_count = 12
trap.assert_jobs_count(1, only=self.env["model"].my_job_method)
trap.assert_enqueued_job(
self.env["model"].my_job_method,
args=("Hi!",),
kwargs=dict(count=expected_count),
properties=dict(priority=15)
)
self.assertEqual(result, expected_count)
# second test to validate the behavior of the job unitarily
def test_my_job_method(self):
record = self.env["model"].browse(1)
record.my_job_method("Hi!", count=12)
self.assertEqual(record.name, "Hi! Hi! Hi! Hi! Hi! Hi! Hi! Hi! Hi! Hi! Hi! Hi!")
If you prefer, you can still test the whole thing in a single test, by calling
``jobs_tester.perform_enqueued_jobs()`` in your test.
.. code-block:: python
def test_method_to_test(self):
with trap_jobs() as trap:
result = self.env["model"].method_to_test()
expected_count = 12
trap.assert_jobs_count(1, only=self.env["model"].my_job_method)
trap.assert_enqueued_job(
self.env["model"].my_job_method,
args=("Hi!",),
kwargs=dict(count=expected_count),
properties=dict(priority=15)
)
self.assertEqual(result, expected_count)
trap.perform_enqueued_jobs()
record = self.env["model"].browse(1)
record.my_job_method("Hi!", count=12)
self.assertEqual(record.name, "Hi! Hi! Hi! Hi! Hi! Hi! Hi! Hi! Hi! Hi! Hi! Hi!")
**Execute jobs synchronously when running Odoo**
When you are developing (ie: connector modules) you might want
to bypass the queue job and run your code immediately.
To do so you can set ``TEST_QUEUE_JOB_NO_DELAY=1`` in your environment.
.. WARNING:: Do not do this in production
**Execute jobs synchronously in tests**
You should use ``trap_jobs``, really, but if for any reason you could not use it,
and still need to have job methods executed synchronously in your tests, you can
do so by setting ``test_queue_job_no_delay=True`` in the context.
Tip: you can do this at test case level like this
.. code-block:: python
@classmethod
def setUpClass(cls):
super().setUpClass()
cls.env = cls.env(context=dict(
cls.env.context,
test_queue_job_no_delay=True, # no jobs thanks
))
Then all your tests execute the job methods synchronously without delaying any
jobs.
In tests you'll have to mute the logger like:
@mute_logger('odoo.addons.queue_job.models.base')
.. NOTE:: in graphs of jobs, the ``test_queue_job_no_delay`` context key must be in at
least one job's env of the graph for the whole graph to be executed synchronously
Tips and tricks
---------------
* **Idempotency** (https://www.restapitutorial.com/lessons/idempotency.html): The queue_job should be idempotent so they can be retried several times without impact on the data.
* **The job should test at the very beginning its relevance**: the moment the job will be executed is unknown by design. So the first task of a job should be to check if the related work is still relevant at the moment of the execution.
Patterns
--------
Through the time, two main patterns emerged:
1. For data exposed to users, a model should store the data and the model should be the creator of the job. The job is kept hidden from the users
2. For technical data, that are not exposed to the users, it is generally alright to create directly jobs with data passed as arguments to the job, without intermediary models.
Known issues / Roadmap
======================
* After creating a new database or installing ``queue_job`` on an
existing database, Odoo must be restarted for the runner to detect it.
* When Odoo shuts down normally, it waits for running jobs to finish.
However, when the Odoo server crashes or is otherwise force-stopped,
running jobs are interrupted while the runner has no chance to know
they have been aborted. In such situations, jobs may remain in
``started`` or ``enqueued`` state after the Odoo server is halted.
Since the runner has no way to know if they are actually running or
not, and does not know for sure if it is safe to restart the jobs,
it does not attempt to restart them automatically. Such stale jobs
therefore fill the running queue and prevent other jobs to start.
You must therefore requeue them manually, either from the Jobs view,
or by running the following SQL statement *before starting Odoo*:
.. code-block:: sql
update queue_job set state='pending' where state in ('started', 'enqueued')

[1]_\n\n\n* Using the Odoo configuration file:\n\n.. code-block:: ini\n\n [options]\n (...)\n workers = 6\n server_wide_modules = web,queue_job\n\n (...)\n [queue_job]\n channels = root:2\n\n* Confirm the runner is starting correctly by checking the odoo log file:\n\n.. code-block::\n\n ...INFO...queue_job.jobrunner.runner: starting\n ...INFO...queue_job.jobrunner.runner: initializing database connections\n ...INFO...queue_job.jobrunner.runner: queue job runner ready for db <dbname>\n ...INFO...queue_job.jobrunner.runner: database connections ready\n\n* Create jobs (eg using ``base_import_async``) and observe they\n start immediately and in parallel.\n\n* Tip: to enable debug logging for the queue job, use\n ``--log-handler=odoo.addons.queue_job:DEBUG``\n\n.. [1] It works with the threaded Odoo server too, although this way\n of running Odoo is obviously not for production purposes.\n\nUsage\n=====\n\nTo use this module, you need to:\n\n#. Go to ``Job Queue`` menu\n\nDevelopers\n~~~~~~~~~~\n\nDelaying jobs\n-------------\n\nThe fast way to enqueue a job for a method is to use ``with_delay()`` on a record\nor model:\n\n\n.. code-block:: python\n\n def button_done(self):\n self.with_delay().print_confirmation_document(self.state)\n self.write({\"state\": \"done\"})\n return True\n\nHere, the method ``print_confirmation_document()`` will be executed asynchronously\nas a job. ``with_delay()`` can take several parameters to define more precisely how\nthe job is executed (priority, ...).\n\nAll the arguments passed to the method being delayed are stored in the job and\npassed to the method when it is executed asynchronously, including ``self``, so\nthe current record is maintained during the job execution (warning: the context\nis not kept).\n\nDependencies can be expressed between jobs. To start a graph of jobs, use ``delayable()``\non a record or model. The following is the equivalent of ``with_delay()`` but using the\nlong form:\n\n.. code-block:: python\n\n def button_done(self):\n delayable = self.delayable()\n delayable.print_confirmation_document(self.state)\n delayable.delay()\n self.write({\"state\": \"done\"})\n return True\n\nMethods of Delayable objects return itself, so it can be used as a builder pattern,\nwhich in some cases allow to build the jobs dynamically:\n\n.. code-block:: python\n\n def button_generate_simple_with_delayable(self):\n self.ensure_one()\n # Introduction of a delayable object, using a builder pattern\n # allowing to chain jobs or set properties. The delay() method\n # on the delayable object actually stores the delayable objects\n # in the queue_job table\n (\n self.delayable()\n .generate_thumbnail((50, 50))\n .set(priority=30)\n .set(description=_(\"generate xxx\"))\n .delay()\n )\n\nThe simplest way to define a dependency is to use ``.on_done(job)`` on a Delayable:\n\n.. code-block:: python\n\n def button_chain_done(self):\n self.ensure_one()\n job1 = self.browse(1).delayable().generate_thumbnail((50, 50))\n job2 = self.browse(1).delayable().generate_thumbnail((50, 50))\n job3 = self.browse(1).delayable().generate_thumbnail((50, 50))\n # job 3 is executed when job 2 is done which is executed when job 1 is done\n job1.on_done(job2.on_done(job3)).delay()\n\nDelayables can be chained to form more complex graphs using the ``chain()`` and\n``group()`` primitives.\nA chain represents a sequence of jobs to execute in order, a group represents\njobs which can be executed in parallel. Using ``chain()`` has the same effect as\nusing several nested ``on_done()`` but is more readable. Both can be combined to\nform a graph, for instance we can group [A] of jobs, which blocks another group\n[B] of jobs. When and only when all the jobs of the group [A] are executed, the\njobs of the group [B] are executed. The code would look like:\n\n.. code-block:: python\n\n from odoo.addons.queue_job.delay import group, chain\n\n def button_done(self):\n group_a = group(self.delayable().method_foo(), self.delayable().method_bar())\n group_b = group(self.delayable().method_baz(1), self.delayable().method_baz(2))\n chain(group_a, group_b).delay()\n self.write({\"state\": \"done\"})\n return True\n\nWhen a failure happens in a graph of jobs, the execution of the jobs that depend on the\nfailed job stops. They remain in a state ``wait_dependencies`` until their \"parent\" job is\nsuccessful. This can happen in two ways: either the parent job retries and is successful\non a second try, either the parent job is manually \"set to done\" by a user. In these two\ncases, the dependency is resolved and the graph will continue to be processed. Alternatively,\nthe failed job and all its dependent jobs can be canceled by a user. The other jobs of the\ngraph that do not depend on the failed job continue their execution in any case.\n\nNote: ``delay()`` must be called on the delayable, chain, or group which is at the top\nof the graph. In the example above, if it was called on ``group_a``, then ``group_b``\nwould never be delayed (but a warning would be shown).\n\n\nEnqueing Job Options\n--------------------\n\n* priority: default is 10, the closest it is to 0, the faster it will be\n executed\n* eta: Estimated Time of Arrival of the job. It will not be executed before this\n date/time\n* max_retries: default is 5, maximum number of retries before giving up and set\n the job state to 'failed'. A value of 0 means infinite retries.\n* description: human description of the job. If not set, description is computed\n from the function doc or method name\n* channel: the complete name of the channel to use to process the function. If\n specified it overrides the one defined on the function\n* identity_key: key uniquely identifying the job, if specified and a job with\n the same key has not yet been run, the new job will not be created\n\nConfigure default options for jobs\n----------------------------------\n\nIn earlier versions, jobs could be configured using the ``@job`` decorator.\nThis is now obsolete, they can be configured using optional ``queue.job.function``\nand ``queue.job.channel`` XML records.\n\nExample of channel:\n\n.. code-block:: XML\n\n <record id=\"channel_sale\" model=\"queue.job.channel\">\n <field name=\"name\">sale</field>\n <field name=\"parent_id\" ref=\"queue_job.channel_root\" />\n </record>\n\nExample of job function:\n\n.. code-block:: XML\n\n <record id=\"job_function_sale_order_action_done\" model=\"queue.job.function\">\n <field name=\"model_id\" ref=\"sale.model_sale_order\" />\n <field name=\"method\">action_done</field>\n <field name=\"channel_id\" ref=\"channel_sale\" />\n <field name=\"related_action\" eval='{\"func_name\": \"custom_related_action\"}' />\n <field name=\"retry_pattern\" eval=\"{1: 60, 2: 180, 3: 10, 5: 300}\" />\n </record>\n\nThe general form for the ``name`` is: ``<model.name>.method``.\n\nThe channel, related action and retry pattern options are optional, they are\ndocumented below.\n\nWhen writing modules, if 2+ modules add a job function or channel with the same\nname (and parent for channels), they'll be merged in the same record, even if\nthey have different xmlids. On uninstall, the merged record is deleted when all\nthe modules using it are uninstalled.\n\n\n**Job function: model**\n\nIf the function is defined in an abstract model, you can not write\n``<field name=\"model_id\" ref=\"xml_id_of_the_abstract_model\"</field>``\nbut you have to define a function for each model that inherits from the abstract model.\n\n\n**Job function: channel**\n\nThe channel where the job will be delayed. The default channel is ``root``.\n\n**Job function: related action**\n\nThe *Related Action* appears as a button on the Job's view.\nThe button will execute the defined action.\n\nThe default one is to open the view of the record related to the job (form view\nwhen there is a single record, list view for several records).\nIn many cases, the default related action is enough and doesn't need\ncustomization, but it can be customized by providing a dictionary on the job\nfunction:\n\n.. code-block:: python\n\n {\n \"enable\": False,\n \"func_name\": \"related_action_partner\",\n \"kwargs\": {\"name\": \"Partner\"},\n }\n\n* ``enable``: when ``False``, the button has no effect (default: ``True``)\n* ``func_name``: name of the method on ``queue.job`` that returns an action\n* ``kwargs``: extra arguments to pass to the related action method\n\nExample of related action code:\n\n.. code-block:: python\n\n class QueueJob(models.Model):\n _inherit = 'queue.job'\n\n def related_action_partner(self, name):\n self.ensure_one()\n model = self.model_name\n partner = self.records\n action = {\n 'name': name,\n 'type': 'ir.actions.act_window',\n 'res_model': model,\n 'view_type': 'form',\n 'view_mode': 'form',\n 'res_id': partner.id,\n }\n return action\n\n\n**Job function: retry pattern**\n\nWhen a job fails with a retryable error type, it is automatically\nretried later. By default, the retry is always 10 minutes later.\n\nA retry pattern can be configured on the job function. What a pattern represents\nis \"from X tries, postpone to Y seconds\". It is expressed as a dictionary where\nkeys are tries and values are seconds to postpone as integers:\n\n\n.. code-block:: python\n\n {\n 1: 10,\n 5: 20,\n 10: 30,\n 15: 300,\n }\n\nBased on this configuration, we can tell that:\n\n* 5 first retries are postponed 10 seconds later\n* retries 5 to 10 postponed 20 seconds later\n* retries 10 to 15 postponed 30 seconds later\n* all subsequent retries postponed 5 minutes later\n\n**Job Context**\n\nThe context of the recordset of the job, or any recordset passed in arguments of\na job, is transferred to the job according to an allow-list.\n\nThe default allow-list is empty for backward compatibility. The allow-list can\nbe customized in ``Base._job_prepare_context_before_enqueue_keys``.\n\nExample:\n\n.. code-block:: python\n\n class Base(models.AbstractModel):\n\n _inherit = \"base\"\n\n @api.model\n def _job_prepare_context_before_enqueue_keys(self):\n \"\"\"Keys to keep in context of stored jobs\n\n Empty by default for backward compatibility.\n \"\"\"\n return (\"tz\", \"lang\", \"allowed_company_ids\", \"force_company\", \"active_test\")\n\n**Bypass jobs on running Odoo**\n\nWhen you are developing (ie: connector modules) you might want\nto bypass the queue job and run your code immediately.\n\nTo do so you can set `TEST_QUEUE_JOB_NO_DELAY=1` in your enviroment.\n\n**Bypass jobs in tests**\n\nWhen writing tests on job-related methods is always tricky to deal with\ndelayed recordsets. To make your testing life easier\nyou can set `test_queue_job_no_delay=True` in the context.\n\nTip: you can do this at test case level like this\n\n.. code-block:: python\n\n @classmethod\n def setUpClass(cls):\n super().setUpClass()\n cls.env = cls.env(context=dict(\n cls.env.context,\n test_queue_job_no_delay=True, # no jobs thanks\n ))\n\nThen all your tests execute the job methods synchronously\nwithout delaying any jobs.\n\nTesting\n-------\n\n**Asserting enqueued jobs**\n\nThe recommended way to test jobs, rather than running them directly and synchronously is to\nsplit the tests in two parts:\n\n * one test where the job is mocked (trap jobs with ``trap_jobs()`` and the test\n only verifies that the job has been delayed with the expected arguments\n * one test that only calls the method of the job synchronously, to validate the\n proper behavior of this method only\n\nProceeding this way means that you can prove that jobs will be enqueued properly\nat runtime, and it ensures your code does not have a different behavior in tests\nand in production (because running your jobs synchronously may have a different\nbehavior as they are in the same transaction / in the middle of the method).\nAdditionally, it gives more control on the arguments you want to pass when\ncalling the job's method (synchronously, this time, in the second type of\ntests), and it makes tests smaller.\n\nThe best way to run such assertions on the enqueued jobs is to use\n``odoo.addons.queue_job.tests.common.trap_jobs()``.\n\nInside this context manager, instead of being added in the database's queue,\njobs are pushed in an in-memory list. The context manager then provides useful\nhelpers to verify that jobs have been enqueued with the expected arguments. It\neven can run the jobs of its list synchronously! Details in\n``odoo.addons.queue_job.tests.common.JobsTester``.\n\nA very small example (more details in ``tests/common.py``):\n\n.. code-block:: python\n\n # code\n def my_job_method(self, name, count):\n self.write({\"name\": \" \".join([name] * count)\n\n def method_to_test(self):\n count = self.env[\"other.model\"].search_count([])\n self.with_delay(priority=15).my_job_method(\"Hi!\", count=count)\n return count\n\n # tests\n from odoo.addons.queue_job.tests.common import trap_jobs\n\n # first test only check the expected behavior of the method and the proper\n # enqueuing of jobs\n def test_method_to_test(self):\n with trap_jobs() as trap:\n result = self.env[\"model\"].method_to_test()\n expected_count = 12\n\n trap.assert_jobs_count(1, only=self.env[\"model\"].my_job_method)\n trap.assert_enqueued_job(\n self.env[\"model\"].my_job_method,\n args=(\"Hi!\",),\n kwargs=dict(count=expected_count),\n properties=dict(priority=15)\n )\n self.assertEqual(result, expected_count)\n\n\n # second test to validate the behavior of the job unitarily\n def test_my_job_method(self):\n record = self.env[\"model\"].browse(1)\n record.my_job_method(\"Hi!\", count=12)\n self.assertEqual(record.name, \"Hi! Hi! Hi! Hi! Hi! Hi! Hi! Hi! Hi! Hi! Hi! Hi!\")\n\nIf you prefer, you can still test the whole thing in a single test, by calling\n``jobs_tester.perform_enqueued_jobs()`` in your test.\n\n.. code-block:: python\n\n def test_method_to_test(self):\n with trap_jobs() as trap:\n result = self.env[\"model\"].method_to_test()\n expected_count = 12\n\n trap.assert_jobs_count(1, only=self.env[\"model\"].my_job_method)\n trap.assert_enqueued_job(\n self.env[\"model\"].my_job_method,\n args=(\"Hi!\",),\n kwargs=dict(count=expected_count),\n properties=dict(priority=15)\n )\n self.assertEqual(result, expected_count)\n\n trap.perform_enqueued_jobs()\n\n record = self.env[\"model\"].browse(1)\n record.my_job_method(\"Hi!\", count=12)\n self.assertEqual(record.name, \"Hi! Hi! Hi! Hi! Hi! Hi! Hi! Hi! Hi! Hi! Hi! Hi!\")\n\n**Execute jobs synchronously when running Odoo**\n\nWhen you are developing (ie: connector modules) you might want\nto bypass the queue job and run your code immediately.\n\nTo do so you can set ``TEST_QUEUE_JOB_NO_DELAY=1`` in your environment.\n\n.. WARNING:: Do not do this in production\n\n**Execute jobs synchronously in tests**\n\nYou should use ``trap_jobs``, really, but if for any reason you could not use it,\nand still need to have job methods executed synchronously in your tests, you can\ndo so by setting ``test_queue_job_no_delay=True`` in the context.\n\nTip: you can do this at test case level like this\n\n.. code-block:: python\n\n @classmethod\n def setUpClass(cls):\n super().setUpClass()\n cls.env = cls.env(context=dict(\n cls.env.context,\n test_queue_job_no_delay=True, # no jobs thanks\n ))\n\nThen all your tests execute the job methods synchronously without delaying any\njobs.\n\nIn tests you'll have to mute the logger like:\n\n @mute_logger('odoo.addons.queue_job.models.base')\n\n.. NOTE:: in graphs of jobs, the ``test_queue_job_no_delay`` context key must be in at\n least one job's env of the graph for the whole graph to be executed synchronously\n\n\nTips and tricks\n---------------\n\n* **Idempotency** (https://www.restapitutorial.com/lessons/idempotency.html): The queue_job should be idempotent so they can be retried several times without impact on the data.\n* **The job should test at the very beginning its relevance**: the moment the job will be executed is unknown by design. So the first task of a job should be to check if the related work is still relevant at the moment of the execution.\n\nPatterns\n--------\nThrough the time, two main patterns emerged:\n\n1. For data exposed to users, a model should store the data and the model should be the creator of the job. The job is kept hidden from the users\n2. For technical data, that are not exposed to the users, it is generally alright to create directly jobs with data passed as arguments to the job, without intermediary models.\n\nKnown issues / Roadmap\n======================\n\n* After creating a new database or installing ``queue_job`` on an\n existing database, Odoo must be restarted for the runner to detect it.\n\n* When Odoo shuts down normally, it waits for running jobs to finish.\n However, when the Odoo server crashes or is otherwise force-stopped,\n running jobs are interrupted while the runner has no chance to know\n they have been aborted. In such situations, jobs may remain in\n ``started`` or ``enqueued`` state after the Odoo server is halted.\n Since the runner has no way to know if they are actually running or\n not, and does not know for sure if it is safe to restart the jobs,\n it does not attempt to restart them automatically. Such stale jobs\n therefore fill the running queue and prevent other jobs to start.\n You must therefore requeue them manually, either from the Jobs view,\n or by running the following SQL statement *before starting Odoo*:\n\n.. code-block:: sql\n\n update queue_job set state='pending' where state in ('started', 'enqueued')\n\nChangelog\n=========\n\n..
