Set data time

Procedure

For example, a job can run at 00:30 every day but process data from the previous day. To do this, you can set a time offset to make the data time one hour earlier than the job's execution time.

1. Integrate the SchedulerX agent into your application and add code to retrieve the data time. For more information, see the quick start guide.

   public class TestHelloJob extends JavaProcessor {
       @Override
       public ProcessResult process(JobContext context) throws Exception {
           System.out.println("hello schedulerx2.0");
           System.out.println("dataTime=" + context.getDataTime().toString("yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss"));
           return new ProcessResult(true);
       }
   }

2. In the console, create a job. For more information, see Create a job. In the Schedule Configuration section, set the time offset to -3600 (in seconds). This creates a backward offset of 3,600 seconds (one hour). The job's execution time does not change. When the job runs, context.getDataTime() returns a data time of 23:30 on the previous day.
   For the time type, select cron. For the cron expression, enter 0 30 0 */1 * ?. This schedules the job to run at 00:30 every day.

Verify the result

1. After creating the job, go to the Execution List page. Find the job instance, and in the Actions column, click Details.
2. On the Job Instance Details page, click Basic Information.
3. On the Basic Information tab, verify that the Data Time is correct.
