This jQuery Plugin provides an easy way to create an overview of all scheduled jobs of a ManifoldCF using the already existing simpleTime jQuery Plugin from eScience-Center.
The ManifoldCF UI does not provide an aggregated view of all jobs configured. - For this you have to select each job and check the scheduling tab:
The ManifoldCF Jobs Timeline fills this gap using the servlet-based JSON API, which is available under /mcf-api-service/json/ on default installation, and making it possible to integrate the job overview whereever you want:
Currently only times and no weekday or dates are considered for the timeline creation.
- jQuery (tested with Version 1.12.4)
- simpleTimeline.js, simpleTimeline.css
- resize.js
- this plugin (manifoldcfJobsTimeline.js)
Important Note You need to adjust the CORS headers of your ManifoldCF json api (provided by the mcf-api-service webapp) when using this plugin on a different domain.
