[jira] [Updated] (YARN-1564) add some basic workflow YARN services

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/YARN-1564?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Steve Loughran updated YARN-1564:
---------------------------------

    Attachment: YARN-1564-001.patch

Here is a package containing the set of workflow yarn services we've been using, and tests. They are described in the javadocs and package-info.java; the key ones are:

# {{WorkflowCompositeService}}: stops when a child stops; propagates up failures.
# {{WorkflowSequenceService}}: starts its children in sequence, stopping when all have been run, or after the first failure.
# {{WorkflowForkedProcessService}} fork a potentially long-lived process; matching the lifecycle of the YARN service to the process. This logs output, caching a few recent lines, rather than buffers it -for that long-lived execution.
# {{WorkflowCallbackService}} executes any {{Callable}} (in java 8, a lambda) when started, stopping the service when it finishes, & propagating exceptions. Lets you run anything in a workflow, or just add new YARN services without subclassing. 

I've been using these for about 9-12 months, building my YARN apps from them, so I consider them fairly mature in terms of functionality.

Note also that the {{ServiceParent extends Service }} interface offering public access to child services *is* effectively implemented by the YARN {{CompositeService}} -all we need to do is explicitly implement the interface and turn the two methods public.

{code}
  void addService(Service service);
  List<Service> getServices();
{code}

> I've been using some alternative composite services to help build workflows of process execution in a YARN AM.
> They and their tests could be moved in YARN for the use by others -this would make it easier to build aggregate services in an AM
