Creating Pull Tasks

Once you have created a pull queue, you can create tasks and add them to the queue.

First you need the name of the queue, which is defined in queue.xml. Then you use the builder and TaskOptions.Method.PULL to add the task. The following example puts tasks in a pull queue named pull-queue:

First, get the queue using the queue name defined in the queue.xml:

Queue q = QueueFactory.getQueue("pull-queue");

Queue q = QueueFactory.getQueue("pull-queue");

Then use the queue's add() method with TaskOptions.Method.PULL to place tasks in a pull queue named pull-queue:

q.add(
    TaskOptions.Builder.withMethod(TaskOptions.Method.PULL).payload(content.toString()));

q.add(TaskOptions.Builder.withMethod(TaskOptions.Method.PULL)
    .payload(content.toString()));
