Hi,
while working on a project I developed this simple system for managing the
execution of long running execute-once tasks. It uses the scheduler and it
provides a nice framework for logging and error reporting.
The main use case for this extension is batch import of data, but also
execute-once maintenance operations. Basically every task that is too long
or heavy to be carried on in a single request, and doesn't really qualify
to be a scheduler job.
You can think of this system as a task queue that is processed in the
background.
I am contributing it to xwiki contrib.
Thanks,
Fabio

Yep.
Job Module is cleaner of course but it's since 4.0M1... which rule out some
older installation of XWiki.
Good to know though (I didn't know about it)
Thanks,

I think there's a difference in that the task executor module seems to
provide a wiki integration (by that I mean the end-user of it just has
to set up some XWiki objects in documents) while the job module is more
an API ?
Is that right ?

Yes. task executor is integrated with the wiki (it provides some UI for
managing tasks, executors and, moreover, logs).
It could have been implemented more easily if the JobModule API was
available :)
Anyway task-executor is installable on XWikis as old as 3.1.
