lool ยป sched is a utility library that provides a way to schedule tasks in various ways. Supports std::thread and the tokio runtime (as a feature flag).
# Installation
This library is for internal use. And as such, it's only published privately.
```bash
cargo add lool --registry=lugit --features sched
```
# Additional Features
- `sched.tokio`: Enables the `tokio` runtime support.
- `sched.rule-recurrent`: Enables the "recurrent-rule" style for scheduling tasks.
- `sched.rule-cron`: Enables the "cron-like" style for scheduling tasks
> [!WARNING] Not implemented warning
> although the `sched.rule-cron` feature is available, it's not yet implemented.
## Planned Features
- `sched.rule-cron`: Enables the "cron-like" style for scheduling tasks
- `sched.rule-pyschedule`: Enables the [python schedule](https://pypi.org/project/schedule/)-like
style for scheduling tasks
# Usage
# Inspiration
This library is inspired by several other libraries, including:
- [node-schedule](https://github.com/node-schedule/node-schedule?tab=readme-ov-file#recurrence-rule-scheduling):
where the idea of recurring rules was taken from.
- [tokio-schedule](https://github.com/dedefer/tokio_schedule): tokio async scheduler
- [schedule-rs](https://github.com/mehcode/schedule-rs): simple thread-based scheduler
- [croner-rust](https://github.com/hexagon/croner-rust): a croner parser for rust
- [job_scheduler](https://github.com/lholden/job_scheduler): another thread-based job scheduler for
rust
- [python's schedule](https://pypi.org/project/schedule/): a simple python scheduler with
a human-friendly API
