Example Usage

Create as many scheduler you like as plugins.

~/server/plugins/smileScheduler.ts

import { useScheduler } from "#scheduler"
import say from "~~/server/app/services/say";

export default defineNitroPlugin(() => {
  startScheduler()
})

function startScheduler() {
  const scheduler = useScheduler();

  scheduler.run(() => {
    say("cool beans! I run once a second! 😀");
  }).everySecond();

  // create as many tasks as you want here
}

Each scheduler can have multiple tasks

~/server/plugins/rocketScheduler.ts

import { useScheduler } from "#scheduler"
import say from "~~/server/app/services/say";


export default defineNitroPlugin(() => {
  startScheduler()
})

function startScheduler() {
  const scheduler = useScheduler();

  scheduler.run(() => {
    say("I run every 3 seconds, 🚀🚀🚀");
  }).everySeconds(3);

  scheduler.run(() => {
    say("I run every 5 seconds, 🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀");
  }).everySeconds(5);

  // create as many tasks as you want here
}

use Human Readable intervals

export default defineNitroPlugin(() => {
  startScheduler()
})

function startScheduler() {
  const scheduler = useScheduler();

  scheduler.run(() => {
    say("I run once a second! 🚀");
  }).cron('* * * * *');
  
  scheduler.run(() => {
    say("Running a job at 01:00 PM at America/Sao_Paulo timezone 🌍");
  }).cron('0 13 * * *', 'America/Sao_Paulo');
