The batch-processing
quickstart shows how to use chunk oriented batch jobs to import a file to a database.
This quickstart simulates a file importation using batch jobs. To make it easy, this quickstart offers the user a way to generate files. The generated file can have its name and the number of records customized. The user can also specify if the file contains an error or not.
The job contains two tasks:
-
It imports the file using a chunk oriented approach.
-
The chunk size is set to
3
. -
The
RecordsReader
is responsible for parsing the file and create an instance ofContact
. -
The
ContactsFormatter
applies the proper case to the contact name and it also applies a mask to the phone number. -
Finally,
ContactsPersister
sends the contact instance to the database.
-
-
It logs the number of records imported.
The database schema defines that the column for name is unique. For that reason, any attempt to persist a duplicate value will throw an exception. On the second attempt to run the job, the ChunkCheckpoint
provides information to skip the contacts that were already persisted.

You are presented with a simple form that allows you to generate sample files to be imported.
-
Click on Generate a new file and start import job button. This generates a new file with 10 unique records to be imported. The import job starts after the file is generated.
-
A table is displayed containing information about the task that was started. Click on the Update jobs list button and verify that the job was completed.
-
Investigate the console output. It shows that files with 10 records were processed, 3 records at a time.

Now you will simulate a file with duplicate records. This will raise an exception and stop the processing. After that, you will fix the file and continue the importing where it stopped.
-
Mark the Generate a duplicate record checkbox and click on Generate a new file and start import job button. If you click on Update jobs list button, you will see that the job failed with the following Exit Status:
Error : org.hibernate.exception.ConstraintViolationException: could not execute statement
. This was caused because the job tried to insert a duplicate record at the Database. You will also seeorg.h2.jdbc.JdbcSQLException: Unique index or primary key violation
exception stacktraces in the server log. -
Next, you will fix the file and restart that job execution. Uncheck the Generate a duplicate record checkbox and click on Generate a new file button. This will generate the file without errors.
-
Click on Restart button in the last column for that job instance in the List of Jobs table. If you click on Update jobs list button, you will see that the job was completed.
-
Review the server logs and verify that the job started from the last checkpoint.

Check the Generate a duplicate record checkbox and click on Generate a new file ans start import job button. If you click on Update jobs list button, you will see that the job failed with the following Exit Status:
Error : org.hibernate.exception.ConstraintViolationException: could not execute statement
. This was caused because you tried to insert a duplicate record at the Database. -
This time you will not fix the file. Just click on Restart button again. If you click on Update jobs list button, you will see that the job was marked as
ABANDONED
this time because it was restarted once. Notice that there is a new parameter:restartedOnce=true
. This behavior was implemented inJobListener
for demonstration purposes, to prevent aFAILED
job from being restarted twice.
You will see the following warnings in the server log. You can ignore these warnings.
