Class JobExecutionContextImpl

Namespace
Quartz.Impl
Assembly
Quartz.dll

A context bundle containing handles to various environment information, that is given to a JobDetail instance as it is executed, and to a ITrigger instance after the execution completes.

Remarks

The JobDataMap found on this object (via the MergedJobDataMap method) serves as a convenience - it is a merge of the JobDataMap found on the JobDetail and the one found on the ITrigger, with the value in the latter overriding any same-named values in the former. It is thus considered a 'best practice' that the Execute code of a Job retrieve data from the JobDataMap found on this object

That map is this firing's own copy: writing to it is safe and reaches the job, the middleware and the listeners, and none of it is written back to what the job or the trigger has stored.

A context exists only inside the process running the job, and only for as long as it runs. The scheduler does not hand it out: QueryFireInstances(FireInstanceQuery, CancellationToken) lists firings across the cluster as FireInstance projections, which carry keys, times and the owning node but none of the live state below. Code that needs the live state — the job instance, the merged job data, the result, the cancellation handle — gets it from an IJobListener of its own, which is handed the context and can keep it for the duration of the execution.

Constructors

JobExecutionContextImpl(IScheduler, TriggerFiredBundle, IJob, IJobInputSerializer?)

Create a JobExecutionContext with the given context data.

public JobExecutionContextImpl(IScheduler scheduler, TriggerFiredBundle firedBundle, IJob job, IJobInputSerializer? inputSerializer = null)

Parameters

scheduler IScheduler

The scheduler this firing belongs to.

firedBundle TriggerFiredBundle

What the job store handed back when the trigger fired.

job IJob

The job instance the factory built for this firing.

inputSerializer IJobInputSerializer

What GetInput<TInput>(IJobExecutionContext) and an IJob<TInput> read a stored input with. Quartz hands the scheduler's own; a context built by hand without one reports a SchedulerException if a job asks it for a stored input, rather than reflecting its way to an answer.

Properties

Calendar

Get a handle to the ICalendar referenced by the ITrigger instance that fired the IJob.

public ICalendar? Calendar { get; }

Property Value

ICalendar

CancellationToken

Returns the cancellation token which will be cancelled when the job cancellation has been requested via Interrupt(JobKey, CancellationToken) or InterruptFireInstance(string, CancellationToken).

public CancellationToken CancellationToken { get; }

Property Value

CancellationToken

FireInstanceId

Get the unique Id that identifies this particular firing instance of the trigger that triggered this job execution. It is unique to this JobExecutionContext instance as well.

public string FireInstanceId { get; }

Property Value

string

the unique fire instance id

Remarks

Never null here, although FireInstanceId is: a context exists only for a firing, and a store writes the id as it hands the trigger over.

See Also

FireTimeUtc

The actual time the trigger fired. For instance the scheduled time may have been 10:00:00 but the actual fire time may have been 10:00:03 if the scheduler was too busy.

public DateTimeOffset FireTimeUtc { get; }

Property Value

DateTimeOffset

Returns the fireTimeUtc.

See Also

JobDetail

Get the JobDetail associated with the IJob.

public IJobDetail JobDetail { get; }

Property Value

IJobDetail

JobInstance

Get the instance of the IJob that was created for this execution.

Note: The Job instance is not available through remote scheduler interfaces.

public IJob JobInstance { get; }

Property Value

IJob

JobRunTime

How long the job has run for.

public TimeSpan JobRunTime { get; }

Property Value

TimeSpan

Remarks

Once the job has completed — or thrown — this is what the scheduler measured, from a monotonic timestamp, and it is the value IJobListeners and ITriggerListeners see. That is what the member is for.

Read while the job is still running, it is an estimate instead: the wall clock now, less FireTimeUtc. It is read from UtcNow rather than from the scheduler's TimeProvider, so under a fake clock set to another instant it is meaningless and can come out negative. The testing tutorial says more.

MergedJobDataMap

Get the convenience JobDataMap of this execution context.

public JobDataMap MergedJobDataMap { get; }

Property Value

JobDataMap

Remarks

The JobDataMap found on this object serves as a convenience - it is a merge of the JobDataMap found on the JobDetail and the one found on the ITrigger, with the value in the latter overriding any same-named values in the former. It is thus considered a 'best practice' that the Execute code of a Job retrieve data from the JobDataMap found on this object.

Writing to it is safe, and it is this firing's own channel. The map is built once per firing by copying the two it merges, so a value put into it is visible to the job, to the rest of the middleware pipeline and to the listeners for as long as the firing lasts, and is seen by nothing else. It is the only per-firing bag there is, and passing something from a middleware to a listener is what it is for.

Nothing written here is persisted. It is a copy: neither the job's nor the trigger's stored data map is touched, and the next firing starts from the stored values again. Data that has to outlive the firing goes into JobDataMap on a job marked PersistJobDataAfterExecutionAttribute, which is what a job store writes back.

NextFireTimeUtc

Gets the next fire time.

public DateTimeOffset? NextFireTimeUtc { get; }

Property Value

DateTimeOffset?

The next fire time.

PreviousFireTimeUtc

Gets the previous fire time.

public DateTimeOffset? PreviousFireTimeUtc { get; }

Property Value

DateTimeOffset?

The previous fire time.

Recovering

If the IJob is being re-executed because of a 'recovery' situation, this method will return true.

public bool Recovering { get; }

Property Value

bool

RecoveringTriggerKey

Returns the TriggerKey of the originally scheduled and now recovering job.

public TriggerKey? RecoveringTriggerKey { get; }

Property Value

TriggerKey

Remarks

When recovering a previously failed job execution this property returns the identity of the originally firing trigger. This recovering job will have been scheduled for the same firing time as the original job, and so is available via the ScheduledFireTimeUtc property. The original firing time of the job can be accessed via the FailedJobOriginalTriggerFireTime element of this job's JobDataMap.

RefireCount

Gets the refire count.

public int RefireCount { get; }

Property Value

int

The refire count.

Result

Returns the result (if any) that the IJob set before its execution completed (the type of object set as the result is entirely up to the particular job).

public object? Result { get; set; }

Property Value

object

Remarks

The result itself is meaningless to Quartz, but may be informative to IJobListeners or ITriggerListeners that are watching the job's execution.

Set the result (if any) of the IJob's execution (the type of object set as the result is entirely up to the particular job).

The result itself is meaningless to Quartz, but may be informative to IJobListeners or ITriggerListeners that are watching the job's execution.

RetryAttempt

How many times this occurrence has already been retried under the trigger's retry policy.

public int RetryAttempt { get; }

Property Value

int

Remarks

Read from the trigger this firing was handed, which is the copy the job store fired: the store wrote the attempt when it scheduled the retry and read it back when it acquired the trigger, so this is the count as the store has it and not something the run shell keeps.

ScheduledFireTimeUtc

The scheduled time the trigger fired for. For instance the scheduled time may have been 10:00:00 but the actual fire time may have been 10:00:03 if the scheduler was too busy.

public DateTimeOffset? ScheduledFireTimeUtc { get; }

Property Value

DateTimeOffset?

Returns the scheduledFireTimeUtc.

See Also

Scheduler

Get a handle to the IScheduler instance that fired the IJob.

public IScheduler Scheduler { get; }

Property Value

IScheduler

Trigger

Get a handle to the ITrigger instance that fired the IJob.

public ITrigger Trigger { get; }

Property Value

ITrigger

Methods

Dispose()

Performs application-defined tasks associated with freeing, releasing, or resetting unmanaged resources.

public void Dispose()

ToString()

Returns a string that represents the current object.

public override string ToString()

Returns

string

A string that represents the current object.
