Extends: IProvideAgentScheduler, IEventProvider<IAgentSchedulerEvents>, IFluidLoadable

Methods

Method	Alerts	Return Type	Description
pick(taskId, worker)	Beta	Promise<void>	Attempts to pick a set of tasks. A client will only run the task if it's chosen based on consensus. Resolves when the tasks are assigned to one of the connected clients. This method should only be called once per task. Duplicate calls will be rejected.
pickedTasks()	Beta	string[]	Returns a list of all tasks running on this client
register(taskUrls)	Beta	Promise<void>	Registers a set of new tasks to distribute amongst connected clients. Only use this if a client wants a new agent to run but does not have the capability to run the agent inside the host. Client can call pick() later if the capability changes. This method should only be called once per task. Duplicate calls will be rejected.
release(taskUrls)	Beta	Promise<void>	Releases a set of tasks for other clients to grab. Resolves when the tasks are released. Only previously picked tasks are allowed. Releasing non picked tasks will get a rejection. App can call pickedTasks() to get the picked list first.
