Daily schedule - setting the time about geoportal-server-harvester HOT 4 CLOSED

I see that this can be done through REST. But not really sure where to start. An example would be great.

from geoportal-server-harvester.

I tried POSTing to the endpoint using Postman:
http://calwgist08:8080/geoharvest/rest/harvester/tasks/cf144d6a-05a2-450d-a9d0-e985ba1571bc/schedule

{"uuid":"57d0e78f-4b10-4087-89e3-eaaabf6032ab","taskId":"cf144d6a-05a2-450d-a9d0-e985ba1571bc","triggerDefinition":{"type":"PERIOD","taskDefinition":{"processor":null,"source":{"type":"UNC","label":"GOM","properties":{"unc-root-folder":"C:\\Harvest","unc-pattern":""},"keywords":[]},"destinations":[{"action":{"type":"FOLDER","label":"xmls","properties":{"folder-root-folder":"c:\\harvest","folder-cleanup":"false"},"keywords":[]},"drains":null}],"keywords":[],"incremental":false,"ignoreRobotsTxt":false},"properties":{"t-period":"R/20170726T02/P1D"},"keywords":[]}}

I get this error:
26-Jul-2017 16:36:16.645 SEVERE [http-apr-8080-exec-8] org.apache.catalina.core.StandardWrapperValve.invoke Servlet.service() for servlet [spring] in context with path [/geoharvest] threw exception [Request processing failed; nested exception is java.lang.NullPointerException] with root cause java.lang.NullPointerException at com.esri.geoportal.harvester.engine.defaults.DefaultTriggersService.schedule(DefaultTriggersService.java:177) at com.esri.geoportal.harvester.rest.TaskController.scheduleTask(TaskController.java:434)

Any clues on how this works? Thanks

If you are interested only in harvesting daily (not weekly, monthly, etc.) then why not to choose to "harvest at"? It allows to exactly what you need: harvesting at the particular hour every day.
