This module is part of the Apache Sling project.
For user documentation see https://sling.apache.org/documentation/bundles/apache-sling-eventing-and-job-handling.html. This README contains information on the API details.
Note that the default implementation has been spun-off into a separate bundle: https://github.com/apache/sling-org-apache-sling-event.
Sling Event API defines the API for Jobs. It defines Job, JobManager and Queue, as well as consumer Apis for a JobConsumer. There are ancillary APIs to support the work of these core interfaces. The core APIs are exported from org.apache.sling.event.jobs with the consumers exported from org.apache.sling.event.jobs.consumer.
