Windows 的计划任务功能不够用，于是试着写了个支持插件和动态加载的定时执行任务工具 Qzzz，暂时是个坑…

Qzzz

A scheduler app for windows.

How to use

• Run as a windows service
  
  Use Install.bat to install the QzzzService
• Run as a console
  
  Run Qzzz.exe and do not close the console.

Create a plugin

• create a config file qzzz.json

  {
      "Id": "323ADBF530C4307B336C670B3F5BD229",
      "Name": "ToastPluginDemo",
      "Version": "1.0",
      "Description": "Toast plugin demo",
      "CronExpression": "*/15 * * * * ?",
      "StartAt": "2014-06-01 00:00:00",
      "EndAt": "2014-07-01 00:01:00",
      "PluginFileName": "Qzzz.ToastPluginDemo.dll",
      "Author": "caoyue",
      "Url": "https://github.com/caoyue/Qzzz"
  }
  

  • Id should be a guid string
  • CronExpression is a Quartz Cron Expression, a little different from *nix
  • StartAt and EndAt is optional

• Create a CSharp library project

• Add Qzzz.Plugin.dll to the references

• Implement IPlugin interface

  public class SimplePlugin : IPlugin
  {
      public void Execute(PluginContext pluginContext)
      {
          // do your job here...
      }
  
      public bool Pause(PluginContext pluginContext)
      {
          // pause job while the return is true...
      }
  }
  

  • You can find a demo in Plugins\Qzzz.SimplePluginDemo
  • Add Qzzz.Toast.dll to use toast notification on windows 8/8.1, like Plugins\Qzzz.ToastPluginDemo

• Build your project and copy the plugin folder to Qzzz\Plugins
