Odd, I have something similar to what you have but I haven't integrated persistence yet. It basically uses JodaTime to allow the user to schedule a task based on a datetime has the ability to repeat tasks at a cadence like, hourly, daily, weekly, etc., and repeat a finite or infinite number of times. It's used like this.
val delayTo = DateTime(2014, 10, 2, 12, 30, 0, UTC) DateTimeScheduler.schedule(date, actorRef, message, Cadence.Daily, Repeat.Inf) this would schedule a message to be sent to the actorRef starting on Oct, 2, 2014 at 12:30 UTC and will be run again at Oct 3, 2014 at 12:30 UTC and will repeat forever. This is just a prototype I was playing around with. Your persistence work looks nice, we should join forces. There is some code. https://github.com/kaiserpelagic/akka-datetime-scheduler Greg On Tuesday, August 5, 2014 8:59:51 AM UTC-7, Akka Team wrote: > > Hi Odd! > I had a brief look at your prototype (didn't read the whole thing – that's > a lot of work you've put in there! :-)). > In general I think it would benefit from living outside of Akka as a > library which users could pick up if they wanted to, > then you could also pull in JodaTime (and not have regexes for dates and > custom `At` types) but could re-use existing `Instant`s etc. > > Keep at it, good luck! :-) > > > On Mon, Aug 4, 2014 at 5:59 PM, Greg Flanagan <vent...@gmail.com > <javascript:>> wrote: > >> Hey Odd, >> >> This looks promising.
