Description

TimedMediaHandler submit jobs to transcode video. They are named webVideoTranscode and are excluded from the default queue processing through $wgJobTypesExcludedFromDefaultQueue .

jobrunner boxes uses the wikimedia-job-runner package. We might want a new package dedicated to run the webVideoTranscode jobs.

Version: unspecified
Severity: minor

Assigning to self and raising priority.

I have started adapting the job loop from mediawiki/extensions/WikimediaMaintenance

https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/11040 (doc update)
https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/11041 (fix ability to handle only a specific job type)

Both changes were reviewed and merged in core. That would let us proceed the transcoding queue by just using:

get-loops.sh webVideoTranscode

Need to package that nicely though.

Part of wikimedia-job-runner Debian package migration to a puppet class.

Jan Gerber has been working on it:

https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/16501/

Been fixed by Jan. See Gerrit change 16501.
