Cadence Worker

Cadence Worker is a new role for Cadence service used for hosting any components responsible for performing background processing on the Cadence cluster.

Replicator

Replicator is a background worker responsible for consuming replication tasks generated by remote Cadence clusters and pass it down to processor so they can be applied to local Cadence cluster.

Quickstart for localhost development

1. Setup Kafka by following instructions: Kafka Quickstart
2. Create Kafka topic for active and standby clusters if needed. By default the development Kafka should create topics in- flight (with 1 partition). If not, then use the follow command to create topics:

bin/kafka-topics.sh --create --zookeeper localhost:2181 --replication-factor 1 --partitions 1 --topic active

and

bin/kafka-topics.sh --create --zookeeper localhost:2181 --replication-factor 1 --partitions 1 --topic standby

1. Start Cadence development server for active zone:

./cadence-server --zone active start

1. Start Cadence development server for standby(passive) zone:

./cadence-server --zone standby start

1. Create global domains

cadence --do sample domain register --gd true --ac active --cl active standby

1. Failover between zones:

Failover to standby:

cadence --do sample domain update --ac standby

Failback to active:

cadence --do sample domain update --ac active

Create replication task using CLI

Kafka CLI can be used to generate a replication task for testing purpose:

bin/kafka-console-producer.sh --broker-list localhost:9092 --topic standby

Replication task message:

{taskType: 0}

Archiver

Archiver is used to handle archival of workflow execution histories. It does this by hosting a cadence client worker and running an archival system workflow. The archival client gets used to initiate archival through signal sending. The archiver shards work across several workflows.

type Service

type Service struct {

}

Service represents the cadence-worker service. This service hosts all background processing needed for cadence cluster: 1. Replicator: Handles applying replication tasks generated by remote clusters. 2. Indexer: Handles uploading of visibility records to elastic search. 3. Archiver: Handles archival of workflow histories.

func (*Service) Start

func (s *Service) Start()

Start is called to start the service

func (*Service) Stop

func (s *Service) Stop()

Stop is called to stop the service
