🕰 Sched

Go In-Process Scheduler with Cron Expression Support

Run Jobs on a schedule, supports fixed interval, timely, and cron-expression timers; Instrument your processes and expose metrics for each job.

Go Doc Go Version Go Report GitHub license

Introduction

A simple process manager that allows you to specify a Schedule that execute a Job based on a Timer. Schedule manage the state of this job allowing you to start/stop/restart in concurrent safe way. Schedule also instrument this Job and gather metrics and optionally expose them via uber-go/tally scope.

Install

go get github.com/sherifabdlnaby/sched
import "github.com/sherifabdlnaby/sched"

Requirements

Go 1.13 >=


Concepts

Job

Simply a func(){} implementation that is the schedule goal to run, and instrument.

Timer

An Object that Implements the type Timer interface{}. A Timer is responsible for providing a schedule with the next time the job should run and if there will be subsequent runs.

Packaged Implementations:

  1. Fixed :- Infinitely Fires a job at a Fixed Interval (time.Duration)
  2. Cron :- Infinitely Fires a job based on a Cron Expression, all Expressions supported by gorhill/cronexpr are supported.
  3. Once :- A Timer that run ONCE after an optional specific delay or at a specified time, schedule will stop after it fires.

You can Implement your own Timer for your specific scheduling needs by implementing

type Timer interface {
	// done indicated that there will be no more runs.
    Next() (next time.Time, done bool)
}

Schedule

A Schedule wraps a Job and fires it according to Timer.

	fixedTimer30second, _ := sched.NewFixed(30 * time.Second)

	job := func() {
		log.Println("Doing some work...")
		time.Sleep(1 * time.Second)
		log.Println("Finished Work.")
	}

	// Create Schedule
	schedule := sched.NewSchedule("every30s", fixedTimer30second, job)

	// Start
	schedule.Start()

Options

Additional Options can be passed to Schedule to change its behavior.

// Create Schedule
schedule := sched.NewSchedule("every30s", fixedTimer30second, job,
	sched.WithLogger(sched.DefaultLogger()),
	opt2,
	opt3,
	....,
)

Logger Option

WithLogger( logger Logger) -> Supply the Schedule the Logger it is going to use for logging.

  1. func DefaultLogger() Logger : Provide a Default Logging Interface to be used Instead of Implementing your own.
  2. func NopLogger() Logger : A nop Logger that will not output anything to stdout.

Metrics Option

WithMetrics( scope tally.Scope) -> Supply the Schedule with a metrics scope it can use to export metrics.

  1. Use any of uber-go/tally implementations (Prometheus, statsd, etc)

Use func WithConsoleMetrics(printEvery time.Duration) Option Implementation to Output Metrics to stdout (good for debugging)

Expected Runtime

WithExpectedRunTime(d time.Duration) -> Supply the Schedule with the expected duration for the job to run, schedule will output corresponding logs and metrics if job run exceeded expected.

Schedule(r)

Scheduler manage one or more Schedule creating them using common options, enforcing unique IDs, and supply methods to Start / Stop all schedule(s).


Exported Metrics

Metric Type Desc
up Gauge If the schedule is Running / Stopped
runs Counter Number of Runs Since Starting
runs_overlapping Counter Number of times more than one job was running together. (Overlapped)
run_actual_elapsed_time Time Elapsed Time between Starting and Ending of Job Execution
run_total_elapsed_time Time Total Elapsed Time between Creating the Job and Ending of Job Execution, This differ from Actual Elapsed time when Overlapping blocking is Implemented
run_errors Counter Count Number of Times a Job error'd(Panicked) during execution.
run_exceed_expected_time Counter Count Number of Times a Job Execution Time exceeded the Expected Time

Todo(s) and Enhancements

  • Control Logging Verbosity
  • Make Panic Recovery Optional
  • Make Job a func() error and allow retry(s), backoff, and collect errors and their metrics
  • Make Jobs context aware and support canceling Jobs Context.
  • Make allow Overlapping Optional and Configure How Overlapping is handled/denied.
  • Global Package-Level Metrics
