Periodic Job - lucas34/SwiftQueue GitHub Wiki

Create a task that will run periodically.

JobBuilder(jobType: CheckForTweet.type)
        // Wait 10 seconds before first execution
        .delay(time: 10)
        // Number if times you want to repeat the job (can be Int.max)
        // Wait 30 seconds between each run
        .periodic(limit: .limited(3), interval: 15)
        .schedule(queue: queue) // Add to queue

Schedule     run      done             run        done           run       finish

Error handling

In case of error, the job will not be rescheduled by default. To do so, you will need to add retry(Limit)

Deadline

You can alternatively specify a time until when the job can run. Execution will be stoped after the deadline

jobBuilder.deadline(date: Date(...))
