Standalone example on jberet (jsr352)

Question

Is there anyway to use jberet as standalone module to execute Batch Jobs?

All the time getting samples on using along with WildFly.

Surprised to see it looks for container to load implementations while trying some samples.

Any insights on why/why not would be helpful

Answer 1

Here is a tutorial how to use jberet in a standalone application: http://www.mastertheboss.com/batch-api/running-batch-jobs-in-j2se-applications

You'll need to include various jboss dependencies for it to work. Furthermore you need to configure jberet with a separate jberet.properties.

I've build a (hopefully) minimal example application according to the tutorial. You can find it here: https://github.com/kaape/jberet-standalone-example

More information can be found in the jberet github repository: https://github.com/jberet

Answer 2

I created a similar example but uses JDBC chunk oriented processing. https://github.com/lbtc-xxx/jberet-se-example

Answer 3

JBeret project test-apps sub-module (https://github.com/jberet/jsr352/tree/master/test-apps) contains various test apps that are structured as standalone Java SE applications (except restAPI where WildFly appserver is needed).

For JBeret + WildFly samples, please check out JBeret project wildfly-jberet-samples module:
