Features

go get github.com/pardnchiu/go-scheduler@latest · Documentation

• Task Dependency Chains — Declare prerequisites with []Wait and choose Stop or Skip when a prerequisite fails.
• Timeouts and Callbacks — Cap each task's execution time; a timeout fires a callback and marks the task failed.
• Cron, Descriptors, and Intervals — Mix 5-field cron, descriptors such as @daily, and @every intervals.
• Min-Heap Event Loop — A min-heap tracks next fire times, so tasks can be added or removed while running.
• Graceful Shutdown — Stop returns a context that completes only after in-flight tasks finish.
