rcron

a simple cron-like job scheduling library for Rust

Usage

Be sure to add the rcron crate to your Cargo.toml:

toml [dependencies] rcron = "1.2.2"

Creating a schedule for a job is done using the FromStr impl for the Schedule type of the cron library.

The scheduling format is as follows:

text sec min hour day of month month day of week year * * * * * * *

Time is for Local your local timezone.

Comma separated values such as 5,8,10 represent more than one time value. So for example, a schedule of 0 2,14,26 * * * * would execute on the 2nd, 14th, and 26th minute of every hour.

Ranges can be specified with a dash. A schedule of 0 0 * 5-10 * * would execute once per hour but only on day 5 through 10 of the month.

Day of the week can be specified as an abbreviation or the full name. A schedule of 0 0 6 * * Sun,Sat would execute at 6am on Sunday and Saturday.

A simple usage example:

```rust use rcron::{JobScheduler, Job}; use std::time::Duration;

fn main() { let mut sched = JobScheduler::new();

sched.add(Job::new("1/10 * * * * *".parse().unwrap(), || {
    println!("exec task every 10 seconds!");
}));

sched.add(Job::new("1/5 * * * * *".parse().unwrap(), || {
    println!("exec task every 5 seconds!");
}));

loop {
    sched.tick();

    std::thread::sleep(Duration::from_millis(500));
}

} ```

example

```shell cargo run --package rcron --example rcron_basic
