Introduction

SAL is a project developed under the Morphemic project, part of the EU's Horizon 2020 initiative. It offers an abstraction layer on top of the ProActive Scheduler & Resource Manager, making it easier for users to interact with the scheduler and take advantage of its features. Whether you want to use SAL as a microservice or deploy it as a Docker container, this repository provides the necessary resources to get you started.

Installation

SAL can be used either as a standalone microservice or as a Docker container. Choose the approach that best suits your requirements.

As Microservice

To use SAL as a microservice, follow these steps:

1. Clone the repository:

git clone https://github.com/ow2-proactive/scheduling-abstraction-layer.git
cd scheduling-abstraction-layer

2. Build the microservice:

./gradlew clean build

As Docker Container

To use SAL as a Docker container, pull the public Docker image from DockerHub:

docker pull activeeon/sal

Usage

Using SAL as a Microservice

To run SAL as a microservice, execute the following command:

./gradlew bootRun

This will start the microservice allowing you to interact with it through various endpoints.

Using SAL as a Docker Container

To deploy SAL as a Docker container, run the following command:

docker run -p 8080:8080 activeeon/sal

This will start the SAL service within a Docker container, and it will be accessible on port 8080.

Configuration

Before using SAL, you need to configure the ProActive Server it will connect to. Use the following endpoints for configuration:

• To initialize the ProActive Server, use the init endpoint:

{protocol}://{host}:{port}/sal/pagateway/init

• To connect to the ProActive Server, use the connect endpoint:

{protocol}://{host}:{port}/sal/pagateway/connect

Endpoints

SAL provides multiple endpoints that you can use to interact with the ProActive Scheduler & Resource Manager. For detailed information on each endpoint, please refer to the project's Javadoc.
