scheduler as workflow service
Reported by Charles Brunet | November 17th, 2008 @ 08:14 AM | in 5.0.3 (closed)
Exploring how scheduler and workflow services were working, I was wondering: why don't you mix both together? You could implement a scheduler task that trigger a special workflow service. That way, an application could register a 'scheduler' service that would be done each the cron job is called. I would allow to enable and disable scheduler tasks using the workflow admin interface, and without coping files from/to task directory. Does it make sence?

The scheduler definitely needs its configuration moved into the UI. That's been in the back of my mind recently. This sounds like a great way to do it and also add flexibility to the scheduler at the same time.
If notifying Sitellite that there are scheduler tasks available in an app worked exactly like the workflow services screen, and the enabled services simply maintained a list of enabled tasks like the workflow screen does, that would work really well.
Great idea!

This commit should allow this. Date is time is passed as data argument. Action is called 'cron'.
