New Behavior

Blueprints can add an estimated time to T-Timers either directly or by anchoring them to a part. The over/under compared to the estimate can then be easily tracked in the UI.

Testing

  • I have added one or more unit tests for this PR
  • I have updated the relevant unit tests
  • No unit test changes are needed for this PR

Affected areas

This PR stores extra T-Timer data in mongo/meteor, adds new interfaces to blueprints integration and timing calculation to the job-worker.

Time Frame

Other Information

Status

  • PR is ready to be reviewed.
  • The functionality has been tested by the author.
  • Relevant unit tests has been added / updated.
  • Relevant documentation (code comments, system documentation) has been added / updated.

So we can measure if we are over or under time
This will ensure a timeout is set for the next expected push start time.
…e management

Add three new methods to IPlaylistTTimer interface:
- clearEstimate() - Clear both manual estimates and anchor parts
- setEstimateAnchorPart(partId) - Set anchor part for automatic calculation
- setEstimateTime(time, paused?) - Manually set estimate as timestamp
- setEstimateDuration(duration, paused?) - Manually set estimate as duration

When anchor part is set, automatically queues RecalculateTTimerEstimates job.
Manual estimates clear anchor parts and vice versa.

Updated TTimersService to accept JobContext for job queueing capability.
Updated all blueprint context instantiations and tests.
