Library was created to give oppotunity to launch some things from time to time according to some schedule in
|
|
runtime of applications.

## How to use
|
|
|
|
There are several ways to configure and use this library:
|
|
|
|
* From some string
|
|
* From builder
|
|
|
|
Anyway, to start some action from time to time you will need to use one of extensions/functions:
|
|
|
|
```kotlin
|
|
val kronScheduler = /* creating of KronScheduler instance */;
|
|
|
|
kronScheuler.doWhile {
|
|
// some action
|
|
true // true - repeat on next time
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Including in project
|
|
|
|
If you want to include `krontab` in your project, just add next line to your
|
|
dependencies part:
|
|
|
|
```groovy
|
|
implementation "dev.inmo:krontab:$krontab_version"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Next version is the latest currently for the library:
|
|
|
|
[  ](https://bintray.com/insanusmokrassar/InsanusMokrassar/krontab-mpp/_latestVersion)
|
|
|
|
For old version of Gradle, instead of `implementation` word developers must use `compile`.
|
|
|
|
### Config from string
|
|
|
|
Developers can use more simple way to configure repeat times is string. String configuring
|
|
like a `crontab`, but with a little bit different meanings:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
/--------------- Seconds
|
|
| /------------- Minutes
|
|
| | /----------- Hours
|
|
| | | /--------- Days of months
|
|
| | | | /------- Months
|
|
| | | | | /----- (optional) Year
|
|
| | | | | | /--- (optional) Timezone offset
|
|
| | | | | | | / (optional) Week days
|
|
* * * * * * 0o *w
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
It is different with original `crontab` syntax for the reason, that expected that in practice developers
|
|
will use seconds and minutes with more probability than months (for example) or even years. In fact, developers will use
|
|
something like:
|
|
|
|
```kotlin
|
|
doWhile("/5 * * * *") {
|
|
println("Called")
|
|
true // true - repeat on next time
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
An other version:
|
|
|
|
```kotlin
|
|
doInfinity("/5 * * * *") {
|
|
println("Called")
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Both of examples will print `Called` message every five seconds.
|
|
|
|
### Config via builder
|
|
|
|
Also, this library currently supports DSL for creating the same goals:
|
|
|
|
```kotlin
|
|
val kronScheduler = buildSchedule {
|
|
seconds {
|
|
from (0) every 5
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
kronScheduler.doWhile {
|
|
println("Called")
|
|
true // true - repeat on next time
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Or
|
|
|
|
```kotlin
|
|
val kronScheduler = buildSchedule {
|
|
seconds {
|
|
0 every 5
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
kronScheduler.doWhile {
|
|
println("Called")
|
|
true // true - repeat on next time
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Or
|
|
|
|
```kotlin
|
|
val kronScheduler = buildSchedule {
|
|
seconds {
|
|
0 every 5
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
kronScheduler.doInfinity {
|
|
println("Called")
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
All of these examples will do the same things: print `Called` message every five seconds.
|
|
|
|
### KronScheduler as a Flow
|
|
|
|
Any `KronScheduler`can e converted to a `Flow<DateTime` using extension `asFlow`:
|
|
|
|
```kotlin
|
|
val kronScheduler = buildSchedule {
|
|
seconds {
|
|
0 every 1
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
val flow = kronScheduler.asFlow()
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
So, in this case any operations related to flow are available and it is expected that they will work correctly. For
|
|
example, it is possible to use this flow with `takeWhile`:
|
|
|
|
```kotlin
|
|
flow.takeWhile {
|
|
condition()
|
|
}.collect {
|
|
action()
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Offsets
|
|
|
|
Offsets in this library works via passing parameter ending with `o` in any place after `month` config. Currently
|
|
there is only one format supported for offsets: minutes of offsets. To use time zones you will need to call `next`
|
|
method with `DateTimeTz` argument or `nextTimeZoned` method with any `KronScheduler` instance, but in case if this
|
|
scheduler is not instance of `KronSchedulerTz` it will works like you passed just `DateTime`.
|
|
|
|
Besides, in case you wish to use time zones explicitly, you will need to get `KronSchedulerTz`. It is possible by:
|
|
|
|
* Using `createSimpleScheduler`/`buildSchedule`/`KrontabTemplate#toSchedule`/`KrontabTemplate#toKronScheduler` methods
|
|
with passing `defaultOffset` parameter
|
|
* Using `SchedulerBuilder#build`/`createSimpleScheduler`/`buildSchedule`/`KrontabTemplate#toSchedule`/`KrontabTemplate#toKronScheduler`
|
|
methods with casting to `KronSchedulerTz` in case you are pretty sure that it is timezoned `KronScheduler`
|
|
* Creating your own implementation of `KronSchedulerTz`
|
|
|
|
### Note about week days
|
|
|
|
Unlike original CRON, here week days:
|
|
|
|
* Works as `AND`: cron date time will search first day which will pass requirement according all parameters including
|
|
week days
|
|
* You may use any related to numbers syntax with week days: `0-3w`, `0,1,2,3w`, etc.
|
|
* Week days (like years and offsets) are optional and can be placed anywhere after `month`
