Configuration of the Generic Execution Engine

The Generic Execution Engine is configured via Symfony configuration files. Default configuration looks like this:

pimcore_generic_execution_engine:
    error_handling: 'continue_on_error'
    execution_context:
        default:
            translations_domain: admin

Define the error handling behavior

There are currently two error handling strategies available:

• continue_on_error: The execution of the job continues even if a step execution fails.
• stop_on_first_error: The execution of the job stops if a step execution fails.

You can define the global (used for all job runs as fallback) error handling strategy in the configuration file:

pimcore_generic_execution_engine:
    error_handling: 'stop_on_first_error'

Define the execution context

Sometimes, it's necessary to customize your translation domain or error handling strategy, depending on your bundle or specific job run.

You can achieve this by defining a custom execution context:

pimcore_generic_execution_engine:
    execution_context:
        my_custom_context:
            translations_domain: my_custom_domain
            error_handling: 'continue_on_error'

You can then pass the name of your execution context when defining a new job run:

$jobExecutionAgent->startJobExecution($job, $owner, 'my_custom_context');

Based on the execution context, the translation domain and error handling strategy are set for the job run. By default, the admin translation domain is used. For error handling, the global configuration strategy, which is continue_on_error, is used as a fallback. Currently, only the translation domain and error handling strategy can be customized per execution context.
