An asynchronous task scheduler, with cron syntax, intervals, limits, dynamic configuration, and optional vault integration.

Project description

PyAsyncScheduler Logo

PyAsyncScheduler

Description

This is an asynchronous scheduler designed to execute both synchronous and asynchronous tasks with flexible timing and configuration options. It supports cron expressions, sleep durations, fixed intervals, start/end time windows, and occurrence limits.

Tasks can be defined using simple wordlists, added dynamically at runtime, and configured individually with execution constraints. While most tasks are expected to be asynchronous, synchronous functions are fully supported.

Optional features include integration with a vault for secure configuration or secrets management. The scheduler is built with extensibility and clarity in mind, suitable for running background jobs, periodic checks, lightweight automation, or orchestrating custom workflows in asynchronous Python applications.
