How do a do "while loop" in ocl when server side or Async? - mdriven

Question

Im using a rest api for getting orders from a webshop, the result is max 100 orders at a time and there is a page param to use for next 100 orders.
I have solve this in a viewmodel using periodic action (disables = not self.oclIsIn(#InProgress)) like this:
vCount := self.Orders->size;
vPage := vPage + 1;
vResponse := selfVM.RestGet(
String.Format('{0}/wp-json/wc/v3/orders?per_page={1}&page={2}',self.Channel.Url, self.Channel.Source.MaxCount, vPage),
self.Channel.UserName,
self.Channel.Password,'');
vResponse := String.Format('{0}{1}{2}','{"orders":', vResponse,'}');
--self.JSonData := self.JSonData + vResponse;
vOutput := vOutput + self.MergeTaJson( ImportBatch.Viewmodels.WooOrderJSon, vResponse );
if ((self.Orders->size - vCount) = 0) then
if vOutput->IsNullOrWhiteSpace then
self.Fail
else
--self.ParsingLog := vOutput;
self.Success
endif;
true
else
vCount := self.Orders->size;
false
endif
It will go on and on until result from the api is 0 then state sets to Done and it stops.
Now I want to do the same server side, but how do I solve this without a periodic action like this? And I want to do the same in a AsyncTicket "action".

Answer 1

Is it possible for you to see the whole serverside job as a periodic action?
Each execution of a SS job should fit in "one go" and saved in one transaction
