"cron": "00 55 23 * * *",
"request": {
"url": "https://<user>:<pwd>@foo.com/email",
"method": "POST",
"body": {
"greeting": "Hello World"
},
"mimeType": "application/json"
}
}Usage
To create a scheduled task, you would emit an event to the request scheduler service:
var EventEmitter = require('events').EventEmitter
var ee = new EventEmitter()
var reqScheduler = require('request-scheduler')(ee)
ee.emit('request-scheduler-create', {
model: 'request-scheduler',
verb: 'create',
object: {
name: "my task",
cron: "00 55 23 * * *",
request: {
...
}
}
})
ee.on('request-scheduler-create-response', function (result) {
console.log(result.ok)
})
ee.on('request-scheduler-create-error', function (err) {
console.log(err.description)
})Support
