automatically). Bold items in lists describing the values are mandatory, italic automatically). Bold items in lists describing the values are mandatory, italic
ones are optional. ones are optional.
## Variables
Because frontend does not know which worker gets the job, its necessary to be a
little general in configuration file. This means that some worker specific
things has to be transparent. Good example of this is that some (evaluation)
directories may be placed differently across all workers. To provide a solution,
variables were established. There are of course some restrictions where
variables can be used. Basically whenever filesystem paths can be used,
variables can be used.
Usage of variables in configuration is simple and kind of shell-like. Name of
variable is put inside braces which are preceded with dollar sign. Real usage is
then something like this: ${VAR}. There should be no quotes or apostrophes
around variable name, just simple text in braces. Parsing is simple and whenever
there is dollar sign with braces job execution unit automatically assumes that
this is a variable, so there is no chance to have this kind of substring
anywhere else.
List of usable variables in job configuration:
- **WORKER_ID** -- integral identification of worker, unique on server
- **JOB_ID** -- identification of this job
- **SOURCE_DIR** -- directory where source codes of job are stored
- **EVAL_DIR** -- evaluation directory which should point inside sandbox. Note,
that some existing directory must be bound inside sanbox under **EVAL_DIR**
name using _bound-directories_ directive inside limits section.
- **RESULT_DIR** -- results from job can be copied here, but only with internal
task
- **TEMP_DIR** -- general temp directory which is not dependent on operating
system
- **JUDGES_DIR** -- directory in which judges are stored (outside sandbox)
## Tasks
Task is an atomic piece of work executed by worker. There are two basic types of
tasks:
- **Execute external process** (optionally inside Isolate). External processes
are meant for compilation, testing, or execution of external judges. Linux
default is mandatory usage of isolate sandbox, this option is present because
of Windows, where is currently no sandbox available.
- **Perform internal operation**. Internal operations comprise commands, which
are typically related to file/directory maintenance and other evaluation
management stuff. Few important examples:
- Create/delete/move/rename file/directory
- (un)zip/tar/gzip/bzip file(s)
- fetch a file from the file repository (either from worker cache or
download it by HTTP GET).
Even though the internal operations may be handled by external executables
(`mv`, `tar`, `pkzip`, `wget`, ...), it might be better to keep them inside the
worker as it would simplify these operations and their portability among
platforms. Furthermore, it is quite easy to implement them using common
libraries (e.g., _zlib_, _curl_).
A task may be marked as essential; in such case, failure will immediately cause
termination of the whole job. Nice example usage is task with program
compilation. Without success it is obvious, that the job is broken and every
test will fail.
### Internal tasks
- **Archivate task** can be used for pack and compress a directory. Calling
command is `archivate`. Requires two arguments:
- path and name of the directory to be archived
- path and name of the target archive. Only `.zip` format is supported.
- **Extract task** is opposite to archivate task. It can extract different types
of archives. Supported formats are the same as supports `libarchive` library
(see [libarchive wiki](https://github.com/libarchive/libarchive/wiki)), mainly
`zip`, `tar`, `tar.gz`, `tar.bz2` and `7zip`. Please note, that system
administrator may not install all packages needed, so some formats may not
work. Please, consult your system administrator for more information. Archives
could contain only regular files or directories (ie. no symlinks, block and
character devices sockets or pipes allowed). Calling command is `extract` and
requires two arguments:
- path and name of the archive to extract
- directory, where the archive will be extracted
- **Fetch task** will give you a file. It can be downloaded from remote file
server or just copied from local cache if available. Calling comand is
`fetch` with two arguments:
- name of the requested file without path (file sources are set up in worker
configuratin file)
- path and name on the destination. Providing a different destination name
can be used for easy rename.
- **Copy task** can copy files and directories. Detailed info can be found on
reference page of
[boost::filesystem::copy](http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_60_0/libs/filesystem/doc/reference.html#copy).
Calling command is `cp` and require two arguments:
- path and name of source target
- path and name of destination targer
- **Make directory task** can create arbitrary number of directories. Calling
command is `mkdir` and requires at least one argument. For each provided
argument will be called
[boost::filesystem::create_directories](http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_60_0/libs/filesystem/doc/reference.html#create_directories)
command.
- **Rename task** will rename files and directories. Detailed bahavior can be
found on reference page of
[boost::filesystem::rename](http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_60_0/libs/filesystem/doc/reference.html#rename).
Calling command is `rename` and require two arguments:
- path and name of source target
- path and name of destination target
- **Remove task** is for deleting files and directories. Calling command is `rm`
and require at least one argument. For each provided one will be called
[boost::filesystem::remove_all](http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_60_0/libs/filesystem/doc/reference.html#remove_all)
command.
### External tasks
External tasks are arbitrary executables, typically ran inside isolate (with
given parameters) and the worker waits until they finish. The exit code
determines, whether the task succeeded (0) or failed (anything else).
- **stdin** -- can be configured to read from existing file or from `/dev/null`.
- **stdout** and **stderr** -- can be individually redirected to a file or
discarded. If this output options are specified, than it is possible to upload
output files with results by copying them into result directory.
- **limits** -- task has time and memory limits; if these limits are exceeded,
the task is failed.
The task results (exit code, time, and memory consumption, etc.) are saved into
result yaml file and sent back to frontend application to address which was
specified on input.
## Judges
Judges are treated as normal external commands, so there is no special task type
for them. Binaries are installed alongside with worker executable in standard
directories (on both Linux and Windows systems).
Judges should be used for comparision of outputted files from execution tasks
and sample outputs fetched from fileserver. Results of this comparision should
be at least information if files are same or not. Extension for this is
percentual results based on correctness of given files. All of the judges
results have to be printed to standard output.
All packed judges are adopted from old CodEx with only very small modifications.
ReCodEx judges base directory is in `${JUDGES_DIR}` variable, which can be used
in job config file.
- **recodex-judge-normal** is base judge used by most of exercises. This judge
compares two text files. It compares only text tokens regardless on amount of
whitespace between them.
```
Usage: recodex-judge-normal [-r | -n | -rn] <file1> <file2>
```
- file1 and file2 are paths to files that will be compared
- switch options `-r` and `-n` can be specified as a 1st optional argument.
- `-n` judge will treat newlines as ordinary whitespace (it will ignore
line breaking)
- `-r` judge will treat tokens as real numbers and compares them
accordingly (with some amount of error)
- **recodex-judge-filter** can be used for preprocess output files before real
judging. This judge filters C-like comments from a text file. The comment
starts with double slash sequence (`//`) and finishes with newline. If the
comment takes whole line, then whole line is filtered.
```
Usage: recodex-judge-filter [inputFile [outputFile]]
```
- if `outputFile` is ommited, std. output is used instead.
- if both files are ommited, application uses std. input and output.
- **recodex-judge-shuffle** is for judging results with semantics of set, where
ordering is not important. This judge compares two text files and returns 0
if they matches (and 1 otherwise). Two files are compared with no regards for
whitespace (whitespace acts just like token delimiter).
```
Usage: recodex-judge-shuffle [-[n][i][r]] <file1> <file2>
```
- `-n` ignore newlines (newline is considered only a whitespace)
- `-i` ignore items order on the row (tokens on each row may be permutated)
- `-r` ignore order of rows (rows may be permutated); this option has no
effect when `-n` is used

- **RESULT_DIR** -- results from job can be copied here, but only with internal
task
- **TEMP_DIR** -- general temp directory which is not dependent on operating
system
- **JUDGES_DIR** -- directory in which judges are stored (outside sandbox)
## Directories and Files
For each job execution unique directory structure is created. Job is not
restricted to use only specified directories (tasks can do whatever is allowed
on system), but it is advised to use them inside a job. Following directories
are created under working directory of the worker for a job execution. This
directory is configurable and can be the same for multiple worker instances.
- `downloads/${WORKER_ID}/${JOB_ID}` -- where the downloaded archive is saved
- `submission/${WORKER_ID}/${JOB_ID}` -- decompressed submission is stored here
- `eval/${WORKER_ID}/${JOB_ID}` -- this directory is accessible in job
configuration using variables and all execution should happen here
- `temp/${WORKER_ID}/${JOB_ID}` -- directory where all sort of temporary files
can be stored
- `results/${WORKER_ID}/${JOB_ID}` -- again accessible directory from job
configuration which is used to store all files which will be upload on
fileserver, usually there will be only yaml result file and optionally log,
every other file has to be copied here explicitly from job
