Thank you
-
You're welcome.


In option 1: Do you mean using *etaMillis of **TaskOptions *using  to
specify the execute time?
---
Yes.


We can trigger a TaskInit by cron and create 48 tasks in queue(every
30 minutes) to avoid chain task.
-
Good idea: I didn't think of that.


I just wish a simple syntax to support such requirement
---
Me too.

[google-appengine] Re: The Schedule Format of cron.xml

2012-05-16 Thread Larry
Hi Lan,
Thank you. 
In option 1:
Do you mean using *etaMillis of **TaskOptions *using  to specify the 
execute time?
This could be a solution. We can trigger a TaskInit by cron and create 48 
tasks in queue(every 30 minutes)
to avoid chain task.


In option 2:
This is my first thought about cron.xml . I just wish a simple syntax 
to support such requirement.
If I change the schedule from 30 minutes to 2 minutes, the cron.xml will be 
1800 entries.

[google-appengine] Re: The Schedule Format of cron.xml

2012-05-16 Thread Ian Marshall
Your syntax problem may lie within your "schedule" tag (mix of month
and every, and unwanted final comma):

  1,15, of month every 2 hours

Your "description" tag and posting text do not match the every 2 hours
in your "schedule" tag. Assuming that you want to run every 30
minutes...

Option 1: try

  1,15 of month 00:00

and at the end of your scheduled task enqueue a task to execute 30
minutes later, if this would be within the same day.


Option 2: try

  1,15 of month 00:00
  1,15 of month 00:30
  1,15 of month 01:00
  1,15 of month 01:30
  ...
  1,15 of month 23:30

This is more robust than chaining enqueued tasks kicked off by a
scheduled task, but would be more cumbersome to code, since you will
need a cron entry for each schedule.


Is this any help?
