## `buildSchedule`

Custom KronScheduler

You always able to create your own scheduler. In this section will be presented different ways and examples around standard `CronDateTimeScheduler` builders `buildSchedule`. You can read about schedulers in KrontabScheduler

Currently, `buildSchedule` is the recommended start point for every scheduler. Usually, it is look like:

    val scheduler = buildSchedule("5 * * * *")

Or:

    val scheduler = buildSchedule {
      seconds {
        at(5)
      }
    }

On the top of any `KronScheduler` currently there are several groups of extensions:

- Executes
- Shortcuts
- Flows

### Executes

All executes are look like `do...`. All executes are described below:

- `doOnce` - will get the next time for executing, delay until that time and call `block` with returning of the `block` result
- `doWhile` - will call `doOnce` while it will return `true` (that means that `block` must return `true` if it expects that next call must happen). In two words: it will run while `block` returning `true`
- `doInfinity` - will call the `block` using `doWhile` with predefined returning `true`. In two words: it will call `block` while it do not throw error

### Shortcuts

Shortcuts are the constants that are initializing in a lazy way to provide preset `KronScheduler`s. For more info about `KrontabScheduler` you can read its own page.

- `AnyTimeScheduler` - will always return incoming `DateTime` as next
- `Every*Scheduler` - return near * since the passed `relatively`:
- `EverySecondScheduler`
- `EveryMinuteScheduler`
- `EveryHourScheduler`
- `EveryDayOfMonthScheduler`
- `EveryMonthScheduler`
- `EveryYearScheduler`

### Flows

Here currently there is only one extension for `KronScheduler`: `KronScheduler#asFlow`. As a result you will get `Flow<DateTime>` (in fact `SchedulerFlow`) which will trigger next `emit` on each not null `next` `DateTime`
