TaskConstraints Class

Execution constraints to apply to a Task.

Inheritance
msrest.serialization.Model
TaskConstraints

Constructor

TaskConstraints(*, max_wall_clock_time=None, retention_time=None, max_task_retry_count: int = None, **kwargs)

Parameters

Name Description
max_wall_clock_time
Required
<xref:timedelta>

If this is not specified, there is no time limit on how long the Task may run.

retention_time
Required
<xref:timedelta>

The default is 7 days, i.e. the Task directory will be retained for 7 days unless the Compute Node is removed or the Job is deleted.

max_task_retry_count
Required
int

The maximum number of times the Task may be retried. The Batch service retries a Task if its exit code is nonzero. Note that this value specifically controls the number of retries for the Task executable due to a nonzero exit code. The Batch service will try the Task once, and may then retry up to this limit. For example, if the maximum retry count is 3, Batch tries the Task up to 4 times (one initial try and 3 retries). If the maximum retry count is 0, the Batch service does not retry the Task after the first attempt. If the maximum retry count is -1, the Batch service retries the Task without limit, however this is not recommended for a start task or any task. The default value is 0 (no retries).

Methods

as_dict

Return a dict that can be JSONify using json.dump.

Advanced usage might optionally use a callback as parameter:

Key is the attribute name used in Python. Attr_desc is a dict of metadata. Currently contains 'type' with the msrest type and 'key' with the RestAPI encoded key. Value is the current value in this object.

The string returned will be used to serialize the key. If the return type is a list, this is considered hierarchical result dict.

See the three examples in this file:

  • attribute_transformer

  • full_restapi_key_transformer

  • last_restapi_key_transformer

If you want XML serialization, you can pass the kwargs is_xml=True.

deserialize

Parse a str using the RestAPI syntax and return a model.

enable_additional_properties_sending
from_dict

Parse a dict using given key extractor return a model.

By default consider key extractors (rest_key_case_insensitive_extractor, attribute_key_case_insensitive_extractor and last_rest_key_case_insensitive_extractor)

is_xml_model
serialize

Return the JSON that would be sent to azure from this model.

This is an alias to as_dict(full_restapi_key_transformer, keep_readonly=False).

If you want XML serialization, you can pass the kwargs is_xml=True.

validate

Validate this model recursively and return a list of ValidationError.
