inet.common.task.ErroneousTask¶

class inet.common.task.ErroneousTask(name='task', action='', pass_keyboard_interrupt=False, task_result_class=TaskResult, **kwargs)¶

Bases: Task

Represents a self-contained operation that captures all necessary information in order to be run.

Initializes a new task object.

Parameters:¶

name : string¶

A human readable short description of the task, usually a noun.

action : string¶

A human readable short description of the operation the task is carrying out, usually a verb.

task_result_class : string¶

The Python class name of the produced task result object.

rerun(**kwargs)¶

Runs the task again.

Returns (TaskResult):

The task result.

run(context=None, progress=None, index=0, count=1, print_run_start_separately=False, dry_run=False, keyboard_interrupt_handler=None, handle_exception=True, **kwargs)¶

Runs the task.

Parameters:¶

dry_run : bool¶

Specifies to skip the actual running of the task but do everything else.

keyboard_interrupt_handler=None¶

Provides a class that will handle keyboard interrupts. This allows seamless exit from running multiple tasks.

handle_exception : bool¶

Specifies if exceptions are caught and processed or passed to the caller.

Returns (TaskResult):

The task result.

run_protected(**kwargs)¶

Runs the task in the protected environment wrapped by run(). This method is expected to be overridden by derived classes. The default implementation simply returns a task result with “DONE” result code.

Parameters:¶

kwargs : dict¶

Not used in this implementation.

Returns (TaskResult):

The task result.
