collective.schedule 0.1.3

Plone integration for the python 'schedule' library

collective.schedule
===================

This package integrates the python 'schedule' library (https://github.com/dbader/schedule) with Plone.

It provides the following:

* A ZML interface for scheduling jobs
* A single 'tick' job processing view that can be registered using a Zope Clock Server

Configuration
-------------

First add `collective.schedule` to your buildout eggs.
Then register the collective.schedule 'tick' method as a clock server in your buildout config:

[buildout]
...

[instance]
recipe = plone.recipe.zope2instance
...
zope-conf-additional =
<clock-server>
method /plonesite/@@schedule-tick
period 300
user username
password password
</clock-server>

Scheduling jobs
---------------

You can then register jobs using ZCML as follows:

<configure
xmlns:schedule="http://namespaces.zope.org/schedule">
<schedule:job
view="myview"
unit="day"
at="22:00"
/>
</configure>

Where 'myview' is a browser view that can be looked up on the Plone Site and executed with the user defined in the clock server above.
