Android JobIntentService - Titanium Module

Use the native JobIntentService Titanium.

Requirements

• Titanium SDK 7.3.0+

Example Code to Schedule a Job From within a Module

TiApplication tiapp=TiApplication.getInstance();
Intent intent = new Intent(tiapp, DefaultJSJobIntentService.class);
intent.putExtra("data", jsonData);
DefaultJSJobIntentService.enqueueWork(tiapp,intent);

Example defaultJSJobIntentService.js (must be included in app/assets/android)

(function(service) {
    // get the intent associated with the executing JobIntentService
    var serviceIntent = service.getIntent()

    //process intent if required...
    // e.g. var data = JSON.parse(serviceIntent.getStringExtra('data'));

    var timer;
    var done=function(){
        if (timer) clearTimeout(timer);
        timer=undefined;
        service.stop();
    };

    //set a timeout to ensure we actually "end" the job as we want to play nice
    //with system resources.
    //NOTE: max duration of a JobIntentService execution is ~10Mins on android 8.x
    timer=setTimeout(done,60000); //set as required

    //Do any necessary processing... i.e the JS Job to be done
    //it's a good idea to provide a callback to ensure the job service is
    //stopped when complete.
    require('mymodule').dowork(done);

})(require('ti.jobservice').getCurrentJobIntentService());
