[SOLVED] Quartz scheduler thorntail

Quartz scheduler thorntail

I am new to thorntail. I have integrated quartz in thorntail and able to hit it as REST API. But can I store the scheduler information in context so that scheduler runs once the application is up instead of hitting a URL to run it? Please correct me if I am wrong .

Solution

The question doesn't have much details, but if I understand you correctly, you want to run some code when the application starts. There are at least these 2 ways how to do it:

Using CDI, create an @ApplicationScoped bean with an observer for the @Initialized(ApplicationScoped.class) event:

@ApplicationScoped
public class Initializer {
    public void init(@Observes @Initialized(ApplicationScoped.class) Object event) {
        ...
    }
}

This requires the io.thorntail:cdi fraction.

Using EJB, create a @Singleton @Startup EJB and add a @PostConstruct method:
```
@Singleton
@Startup
public class Initializer {
    @PostConstruct
    public void init() {
        ...
    }
}
```
This requires the io.thorntail:ejb fraction.

I assume you already use CDI, so the 1st variant is probably preferable.
