Can I restart Batchprossor from smart/web client

Hi,

I need to be able to allow a super user to restart a batch processor after changing data.
It would be nice to give this user a button to do that.

Is it possible to restart a batch processor from a smart/web client or should I add a status to tell the batch processor to reload the data it is using.

Hi Marcel,

AFAIK: not easy.

There's a dirty way of doing it by logging into the admin page and post on the html form of the batch processor page.

You can also try if the user manager plugin can help you here.
But I quickly had a look and there is a batch processor object, but without the possibility to stop/start it.
Maybe it's reported via the headless clients.

Thank you Marc,

Hmm, I also thought about the 'dirty way' but don't want to do that.

I will check out the user manager plugin or otherwise I will have to set a flag in a table that the data needs to be reloaded.
