Leasing Pull Tasks | App Engine standard environment for Java 8

Stay organized with collections Save and categorize content based on your preferences.

Once tasks are in a pull queue, a worker can lease them. After the tasks are processed the worker must delete them.

• Create a pull queue.
• Create tasks and add them to the pull queue.

• This method is only applicable to workers that are running within a service in the standard environment.
• When you use pull queues, you are responsible for scaling your workers based on your processing volume.

After the tasks are in the queue, a worker can lease one or more of them using the leaseTasks() method. There may be a short delay before tasks recently added using add() become available via leaseTasks().

When you request a lease, you specify the number of tasks to lease (up to a maximum of 1,000 tasks) and the duration of the lease in seconds (up to a maximum of one week). The lease duration needs to be long enough to ensure that the slowest task will have time to finish before the lease period expires. You can modify a task lease using modifyTaskLease().

Leasing a task makes it unavailable for processing by another worker, and it remains unavailable until the lease expires.

The following code sample leases tasks from the queue pull-queue for one hour:

Not all tasks are alike; your code can "tag" tasks and then choose tasks to lease by tag. The tag acts as a filter.

Then lease the filtered tasks:

Workers that poll the queue for tasks to lease should detect whether they are attempting to lease tasks faster than the queue can supply them. If this failure occurs, the following exceptions from leaseTasks() can be generated:

• TransientFailureException
• ApiDeadlineExceededException

Your code must catch these exceptions, back off from calling leaseTasks(), and then try again later. To avoid this problem, consider setting a higher RPC deadline when calling leaseTasks(). You should also back off when a lease request returns an empty list of tasks.

If you generate more than 10 LeaseTasks requests per queue per second, only the first 10 requests will return results. If requests exceed this limit, OK is returned with zero results.

To view information about all the tasks and queues in your application:

1. Open the Cloud Tasks page in the Google Cloud console and look for the Pull value in column Type.

   Go to Cloud Tasks

2. Click on the name of the queue in which you are interested, opening the queue details page. It displays all of the tasks in the selected queue.

Once a worker completes a task, it needs to delete the task from the queue. If you see tasks remaining in a queue after a worker finishes processing them, it is likely that the worker failed; in this case, the tasks will be processed by another worker.

You can delete an individual task or a list of tasks using deleteTask(). You must know the name of a task in order to delete it. You can find task names in the Task object returned by leaseTasks().

The following code sample demonstrates how to delete a task from a queue:
