Introduction

Create simple schedule manager using Quartz library (https://www.quartz-scheduler.net/)

Prerequisites

• IDE: Microsoft Visual Studio or Visual Studio Code
• NuGet packages:
• https://www.nuget.org/packages/Quartz/3.0.5
• https://www.nuget.org/packages/log4net/2.0.8

Schedule manager

The schedule manager allows you to:

• start the schedule manager
• suspend jobs firing for the schedule manager
• stop the schedule manager
• schedule a job (CRON trigger + timezone or Quartz trigger)
• unschedule a job
• run a job on demand

Usage:

ScheduleManager.Instance.Start();

// schedule an every 15 seconds test job
ScheduleManager.Instance.ScheduleJob<TestJob>("testJob", "testGroup", "0/15 * * * * ?");

// some sleep to show what's happening
Task.Delay(TimeSpan.FromSeconds(60)).Wait();

ScheduleManager.Instance.Stop();
