# Running the Orchestrator

## Quick Start - Watch in Real Time

To run the orchestrator and watch it in real-time (daemon mode):

```bash
cd /Users/daveporter/Desktop/CODING-2024/Ferrero-Opentext/Python-Version
python3 scripts/orchestrator.py --daemon
```

This will:
- Run continuously in the foreground
- Check every minute for tasks that need to run
- Show all output in your terminal
- Press `Ctrl+C` to stop

---

## Other Run Modes

### Force Run All Tasks Immediately
```bash
python3 scripts/orchestrator.py --force
```
Runs all tasks right now, ignoring their schedules.

### Single Check (Cron Mode)
```bash
python3 scripts/orchestrator.py
```
Checks once, runs any due tasks, then exits. This is what cron would call.

---

## Current Task Schedule

- **A1→A2 Box Uploader**: Every 5 minutes (processes 2 campaigns)
- **A2→A3 Upload Polling**: Every 5 minutes (processes ALL files)
- **A4 Box Uploader**: Every 10 minutes
- **A4 Webhook Monitor**: Every 5 minutes
- **A5→A6 Download**: Every 5 minutes
- **B1→B2 Download**: Every 10 minutes
- **Daily Report**: Once per day at 7 PM

---

## Logs

- **Orchestrator logs**: `logs/orchestrator.log`
- **Individual script logs**: `logs/a1_to_a2_box.log`, `logs/a2_to_a3.log`, etc.

---

## Troubleshooting

If you see git output instead of orchestrator output, make sure you're running:
```bash
python3 scripts/orchestrator.py --daemon
```

NOT:
```bash
git pull
```
