Tasks Endpoint
Pre-releaseThe largest change in the release is that the /acquisitions
endpoint, which holds data produced when the scheduler runs a task that saves data in the database, and the /results
endpoint, which was created later to give some status information about each task run, have been merged into a new /tasks
endpoint.
We also took this opportunity to relocate the "task queue", which provides a snapshot of upcoming tasks as seen by the scheduler, from the /status
endpoint into /tasks
.
/tasks/upcoming
now shows the tasks queue. It now shows at most settings.MAX_TASK_QUEUE
upcoming tasks.
/tasks/completed
gives overview information about the number of results available for reach schedule entry that you have permissions to view, and also provides a link to download a multi-recording archive of all available data for that schedule entry.
/tasks/completed/{schedule_entry_name}
lists each task result and "metadata" and SigMF "archive" links under the new data
key, if available.
/tasks/completed/{schedule_entry_name}/{task_id}
shows the detail view for a single task result
Multi-recording SigMF archive are now supported, which means actions can produce them. The "stepped frequency" style actions now produce multi-recording archive to allow a different sample rate at each center frequency.
Other changes:
- sensor definition can be loaded from a yaml file
- actions can be defined in yaml as well (see /configs/README.md)

- Task object (displayed in task queue at
/tasks/upcoming
