Is there anyway to use jberet as standalone module to execute Batch Jobs?
All the time getting samples on using along with WildFly.
Surprised to see it looks for container to load implementations while trying some samples.
Any insights on why/why not would be helpful
Here is a tutorial how to use jberet in a standalone application: http://www.mastertheboss.com/batch-api/running-batch-jobs-in-j2se-applications
You'll need to include various jboss dependencies for it to work. Furthermore you need to configure jberet with a separate jberet.properties.
I've build a (hopefully) minimal example application according to the tutorial. You can find it here: https://github.com/kaape/jberet-standalone-example
More information can be found in the jberet github repository: https://github.com/jberet
