Class ScheduleSpec

Namespace
Temporalio.Api.Schedule.V1
Assembly
Temporalio.dll

ScheduleSpec is a complete description of a set of absolute timestamps (possibly infinite) that an action should occur at. The meaning of a ScheduleSpec depends only on its contents and never changes, except that the definition of a time zone can change over time (most commonly, when daylight saving time policy changes for an area). To create a totally self-contained ScheduleSpec, use UTC or include timezone_data.

For input, you can provide zero or more of: structured_calendar, calendar, cron_string, interval, and exclude_structured_calendar, and all of them will be used (the schedule will take action at the union of all of their times, minus the ones that match exclude_structured_calendar).

On input, calendar and cron_string fields will be compiled into structured_calendar (and maybe interval and timezone_name), so if you Describe a schedule, you'll see only structured_calendar, interval, etc.

Properties

Calendar

Calendar-based specifications of times.

public RepeatedField<CalendarSpec> Calendar { get; }

Property Value

RepeatedField<CalendarSpec>

CronString

cron_string holds a traditional cron specification as a string. It accepts 5, 6, or 7 fields, separated by spaces, and interprets them the same way as CalendarSpec. 5 fields: minute, hour, day_of_month, month, day_of_week 6 fields: minute, hour, day_of_month, month, day_of_week, year 7 fields: second, minute, hour, day_of_month, month, day_of_week, year If year is not given, it defaults to *. If second is not given, it defaults to 0. Shorthands @yearly, @monthly, @weekly, @daily, and @hourly are also accepted instead of the 5-7 time fields. Optionally, the string can be preceded by CRON_TZ=<timezone name> or TZ=<timezone name>, which will get copied to timezone_name. (There must not also be a timezone_name present.) Optionally "#" followed by a comment can appear at the end of the string. Note that the special case that some cron implementations have for treating day_of_month and day_of_week as "or" instead of "and" when both are set is not implemented. @every <interval>[/<phase>] is accepted and gets compiled into an IntervalSpec instead. <interval> and <phase> should be a decimal integer with a unit suffix s, m, h, or d.

public RepeatedField<string> CronString { get; }

Property Value

RepeatedField<string>

Descriptor 

public static MessageDescriptor Descriptor { get; }

Property Value

MessageDescriptor

EndTime

If end_time is set, any timestamps after end_time will be skipped.

public Timestamp EndTime { get; set; }

Property Value

Timestamp

ExcludeCalendar

Any timestamps matching any of exclude_* will be skipped.

[Obsolete]
public RepeatedField<CalendarSpec> ExcludeCalendar { get; }

Property Value

RepeatedField<CalendarSpec>

ExcludeStructuredCalendar 

public RepeatedField<StructuredCalendarSpec> ExcludeStructuredCalendar { get; }

Property Value

RepeatedField<StructuredCalendarSpec>

Interval

Interval-based specifications of times.

public RepeatedField<IntervalSpec> Interval { get; }

Property Value

RepeatedField<IntervalSpec>

Jitter

All timestamps will be incremented by a random value from 0 to this amount of jitter. Default: 0

public Duration Jitter { get; set; }

Property Value

Duration

Parser 

public static MessageParser<ScheduleSpec> Parser { get; }

Property Value

MessageParser<ScheduleSpec>

StartTime

If start_time is set, any timestamps before start_time will be skipped. (Together, start_time and end_time make an inclusive interval.)

public Timestamp StartTime { get; set; }

Property Value

Timestamp

StructuredCalendar

Calendar-based specifications of times.

public RepeatedField<StructuredCalendarSpec> StructuredCalendar { get; }

Property Value

RepeatedField<StructuredCalendarSpec>

TimezoneData 

public ByteString TimezoneData { get; set; }

Property Value

ByteString

TimezoneName

Time zone to interpret all calendar-based specs in.

If unset, defaults to UTC. We recommend using UTC for your application if at all possible, to avoid various surprising properties of time zones.

Time zones may be provided by name, corresponding to names in the IANA time zone database (see https://www.iana.org/time-zones). The definition will be loaded by the Temporal server from the environment it runs in.

If your application requires more control over the time zone definition used, it may pass in a complete definition in the form of a TZif file from the time zone database. If present, this will be used instead of loading anything from the environment. You are then responsible for updating timezone_data when the definition changes.

Calendar spec matching is based on literal matching of the clock time with no special handling of DST: if you write a calendar spec that fires at 2:30am and specify a time zone that follows DST, that action will not be triggered on the day that has no 2:30am. Similarly, an action that fires at 1:30am will be triggered twice on the day that has two 1:30s.

Also note that no actions are taken on leap-seconds (e.g. 23:59:60 UTC).

public string TimezoneName { get; set; }

Property Value
