Worker
Description
Worker's main role is securely execute given submission and possibly evaluate results against model solutions provided by submitter. Worker is logicaly divided into two parts:
- Listener - listens and communicates with Broker through ZeroMQ. It receives new jobs, communicates with Evaluator part and sends back results or progress.
- Evaluator - gets jobs to evaluate from Listener part, evaluate them (possibly in sandbox) and get to know to other part that evaluation ended. This part also communicates with Fileserver, downloads needed files and uploads detailed results.
Worker after getting evaluation request has to:
- Download the archive containing submitted source files and configuration file
- Download any supplementary files based on the configuration file, such as test
inputs or helper programs (This is done on demand, using a
fetchcommand in the assignment configuration) - Evaluate the submission accordingly to job configuration
- During evaluation progress states can be sent back to Broker
- Upload the results of the evaluation to the Fileserver
- Notify Broker that the evaluation finished
