Description

Persistent event scheduler using mongodb as storage.

Provide the scheduler with some storage and timing info and it will emit events with the corresponding document at the right time

This module, extend the original mongo-sheduler and work with up to date dependencies . You can also use the same event name multiple times, as long as the "id" and / or "after" is different, otherwise it will update the document.

And you can now use await / async with this module :) !

With this module, increase the performance of your Node.JS application !

You can completely replace your data scanning system in Data Base and more. Node.JS is EventDriven, exploit this power within your application!

You can visit my blog https://darkterra.fr/ for use case :)

Installation

npm install mongo-scheduler-more

Usage

Initialization

const MSM = require('mongo-scheduler-more');
const scheduler = new MSM('mongodb://localhost:27017/scheduler-db', options);

Type Description Optional
String or Object Use for initiate the connexion with MongoDB, you can use an classical connexion string or a mongoose connection object. false
  • options <Object>
Name Type Description Driver Option Optional
dbname String You can set (and overright) the name of DataBase to use. (only if you use the connexion string) false true
pollInterval Number Frequency in ms that the scheduler should poll the db. Default: 60000 (1 minute). false true
doNotFire Bool If set to true, this instance will only schedule events, not fire them. Default: false. false true

How to use this module with custom eventEmitter
const EventEmitter3 = require('eventemitter3');
const customEventEmitter = new EventEmitter3();

const MSM = require('mongo-scheduler-more');
const scheduler = new MSM('mongodb://localhost:27017/scheduler-db', { customEventEmitter });

schedule()

schedule method allows to create event (stored in MongoDB) that will trigger according to the conditions described below.

Schedules the most basic event [callback]:
const moment = require('moment');
const event  = { name: 'basicUsage', after: moment().add(1, 'hours').toDate()};

scheduler.schedule(event, (err, result) => {
  if (err) {
    console.error(err);
  }
  else {
    // Do something with result event
  }
});
// This event should trigger the "scheduler.on('basicUsage', callback);" in one hour

If is your first scheduling event, it's create the scheduled_events collection with your first event stored.

You can also use the same event name multiple times, as long as the id and / or after is different, otherwise it will update the document stored in mongodb.

Schedules the most basic event [promise]:
const moment = require('moment');
const event  = { name: 'basicUsage', after: moment().add(1, 'hours').toDate()};

try {
  const result = await scheduler.schedule(event);
  // Do something with result event
}
catch (err) {
  console.error(err);
}
// This event should trigger the "scheduler.on('basicUsage', callback);" in one hour

data Object or Primitive Extra data to attach to the event. true

WIP:
scheduler.version();
// Show in the console the actual version of mongo-scheduler-more

Error handling

If the scheduler encounters an error it will emit an 'error' event. In this case the handler, will receive two arguments: the Error object, and the event doc (if applicable).
