job management: include upstream Jobs? #358

Closed ghukill closed 5 years ago

ghukill commented 5 years ago

Encoutered a situation where it would be handy to select the single Merge Job and re-run, but also trigger the re-harvesting of the 40-50 OAI Harvests that are input Jobs to this Job.

Currently, would be required to select all 40-50 OAI Harvests and re-run, which would trigger the re-merge last.

How closely related is this to https://github.com/MI-DPLA/combine/issues/410?

Tangential, I think. The thinking here was the ability to re-run all "upstream" jobs from Job foo. This would include the input jobs that flowed into Job foo, their input jobs, and recursively "upstream".

Currently all re-running all downstream jobs from Job foo is an option, but the functionality had not been included to re-run all upstream.

Re-running Jobs at Org or Record Group level might achieve similar goals, but this was from the POV of a single Job.
