Tags
In this example we will show you how to use tags. Tags are defined on jobs. Both jobs and resources can have tags. If
tag do string matching on the name, the solver will ensure that jobs and resources with the same tag are matched.
{
"name": "technician",
"weight": 1,
"hard": true
}
{
"name": "John",
"weight": 3600,
"hard": false
}
The second tag is a soft tag. Soft tags are used to express preferences. In this case, we want to assign the job to a
resource with tag "John".
If no resource with tag "John" is available, the solver will assign the job to a resource without tag "John". The
weight of the soft tag will enforce that a detour of possible 3600 seconds (1 hour) can be made in order to ensure that
the job is assigned to a resource with tag "John".
