Cron
The cron library is a cron job library for Go.
It is a fork of robfig/cron with some improvements.
Thanks to robfig/cron for the original work, and thanks to all the contributors.
[!IMPORTANT]
v4.xmay introduce situations that are not backward compatible.The reason for this is that we are using
v4.xas a transitional version. In this version, we will try to improve the functionality of the components as much as possible until the release ofv5.x.When releasing a new version, backward compatibility is the default behavior. If there are any incompatibilities, they will be indicated in the release notes.
Installation
go get github.com/flc1125/go-cron/v4
Usage
package main
import (
"context"
"github.com/flc1125/go-cron/v4"
"github.com/flc1125/go-cron/middleware/nooverlapping/v4"
"github.com/flc1125/go-cron/middleware/recovery/v4"
)
func main() {
c := cron.New(
cron.WithSeconds(), // if you want to use seconds, you can use this option
cron.WithMiddleware(
recovery.New(), // recover panic
nooverlapping.New(), // prevent job overlapping
),
cron.WithContext(context.Background()), // use custom context
// ... other options
)
// use middleware
c.Use(recovery.New(), nooverlapping.New()) // use middleware
// add job
entryID, _ := c.AddJob("* * * * * *", cron.JobFunc(func(ctx context.Context) error {
// do something
return nil
}))
_ = entryID
// add func
_, _ = c.AddFunc("* * * * * *", func(ctx context.Context) error {
// do something
return nil
}, recovery.New(), nooverlapping.New()) // use middleware for this job
// start cron
c.Start()
// stop cron
c.Stop()
}
Middleware
- recovery: Recovers from panics in job execution, ensuring system stability.
- delayoverlapping: Delays execution of overlapping jobs instead of running them concurrently.
- nooverlapping: Prevents concurrent execution of the same job.
- distributednooverlapping: Prevents concurrent execution across multiple instances using distributed locking.
- otel: Provides OpenTelemetry integration for job execution tracing.

Constants ¶
This section is empty.
Variables ¶
var DefaultLogger = PrintfLogger(log.New(os.Stdout, "cron: ", log.LstdFlags))
DefaultLogger is used by Cron if none is specified.
var DiscardLogger = PrintfLogger(log.New(io.Discard, "", 0))
DiscardLogger can be used by callers to discard all log messages.
Functions ¶
Types ¶
type ConstantDelaySchedule ¶
ConstantDelaySchedule represents a simple recurring duty cycle, e.g. "Every 5 minutes". It does not support jobs more frequent than once a second.
func Every ¶
func Every(duration time.Duration) ConstantDelaySchedule
Every returns a crontab Schedule that activates once every duration. Delays of less than a second are not supported (will round up to 1 second). Any fields less than a Second are truncated.
type Cron ¶
type Cron struct {
// contains filtered or unexported fields
}
Cron keeps track of any number of entries, invoking the associated func as specified by the schedule. It may be started, stopped, and the entries may be inspected while running.
func New ¶
New returns a new Cron job runner, modified by the given options.
Available Settings
Time Zone Description: The time zone in which schedules are interpreted Default: time.Local Parser Description: Parser converts cron spec strings into cron.Schedules. Default: Accepts this spec: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cron Chain Description: Wrap submitted jobs to customize behavior. Default: A chain that recovers panics and logs them to stderr.
See "cron.With*" to modify the default behavior.
func (*Cron) AddFunc ¶
func (c *Cron) AddFunc(spec string, cmd func(ctx context.Context) error, middlewares ...Middleware) (EntryID, error)
AddFunc adds a func to the Cron to be run on the given schedule. The spec is parsed using the time zone of this Cron instance as the default. An opaque id is returned that can be used to later remove it.
func (*Cron) AddJob ¶
AddJob adds a Job to the Cron to be run on the given schedule. The spec is parsed using the time zone of this Cron instance as the default. An opaque id is returned that can be used to later remove it.
func (*Cron) Schedule ¶
func (c *Cron) Schedule(schedule Schedule, cmd Job, middlewares ...Middleware) EntryID
Schedule adds a Job to the Cron to be run on the given schedule. The job is wrapped with the configured Chain.
func (*Cron) Start ¶
func (c *Cron) Start()
Start the cron scheduler in its own goroutine, or no-op if already started.
func (*Cron) Stop ¶
Stop stops the cron scheduler if it is running; otherwise it does nothing. A context is returned so the caller can wait for running jobs to complete.
func (*Cron) Use ¶
func (c *Cron) Use(middleware ...Middleware)
Use adds a middleware to the chain of all jobs.
type Entry ¶
type Entry struct {
// contains filtered or unexported fields
}
Entry consists of a schedule and the func to execute on that schedule.
func EntryFromContext ¶
EntryFromContext returns the EntryID from the context.
func NewEntry ¶ added in v4.4.0
func NewEntry(id EntryID, schedule Schedule, job Job, opts ...EntryOption) *Entry
NewEntry creates a new entry with the given schedule and job.
func (*Entry) WrappedJob ¶
type EntryOption ¶
type EntryOption func(*Entry)
func WithEntryMiddlewares ¶
func WithEntryMiddlewares(middlewares ...Middleware) EntryOption
type Logger ¶
type Logger interface {
// Info logs routine messages about cron's operation.
Info(msg string, keysAndValues ...any)
// Error logs an error condition.
Error(err error, msg string, keysAndValues ...any)
}
Logger is the interface used in this package for logging, so that any backend can be plugged in. It is a subset of the github.com/go-logr/logr interface.
func PrintfLogger ¶
PrintfLogger wraps a Printf-based logger (such as the standard library "log") into an implementation of the Logger interface which logs errors only.
func VerbosePrintfLogger ¶
VerbosePrintfLogger wraps a Printf-based logger (such as the standard library "log") into an implementation of the Logger interface which logs everything.
type Middleware ¶
Middleware is a function that wraps a Job to provide additional functionality.
func Chain ¶
func Chain(m ...Middleware) Middleware
Chain is a helper function to compose Middlewares. It returns a Middleware that applies the Middlewares in order.
Chain(m1, m2, m3) => m1(m2(m3(job)))
func NoopMiddleware ¶
func NoopMiddleware() Middleware
NoopMiddleware returns a Middleware that does nothing. It is useful for testing and for composing with other Middlewares.
type NoopJob ¶
type NoopJob struct{}
NoopJob is a job that does nothing. it is useful for testing and examples.
type Option ¶
type Option func(*Cron)
Option represents a modification to the default behavior of a Cron.
func WithContext ¶
WithContext overrides the context used by the Cron.
func WithLocation ¶
WithLocation overrides the timezone of the cron instance.
func WithMiddleware ¶
func WithMiddleware(middlewares ...Middleware) Option
WithMiddleware specifies Middleware to apply to all jobs added to this cron.
func WithParser ¶
func WithParser(p ScheduleParser) Option
WithParser overrides the parser used for interpreting job schedules.
func WithSeconds ¶
func WithSeconds() Option
WithSeconds overrides the parser used for interpreting job schedules to include a seconds field as the first one.
type ParseOption ¶
type ParseOption int
ParseOption Configuration options for creating a parser. Most options specify which fields should be included, while others enable features. If a field is not included the parser will assume a default value. These options do not change the order fields are parse in.
const ( Second ParseOption = 1 << iota // Seconds field, default 0 SecondOptional // Optional seconds field, default 0 Minute // Minutes field, default 0 Hour // Hours field, default 0 Dom // Day of month field, default * Month // Month field, default * Dow // Day of week field, default * DowOptional // Optional day of week field, default * Descriptor // Allow descriptors such as @monthly, @weekly, etc. )
type Parser ¶
type Parser struct {
// contains filtered or unexported fields
}
Parser A custom Parser that can be configured.
func NewParser ¶
func NewParser(options ParseOption) Parser
NewParser creates a Parser with custom options.
It panics if more than one Optional is given, since it would be impossible to correctly infer which optional is provided or missing in general.
Examples
// Standard parser without descriptors
specParser := NewParser(Minute | Hour | Dom | Month | Dow)
sched, err := specParser.Parse("0 0 15 */3 *")
// Same as above, just excludes time fields
specParser := NewParser(Dom | Month | Dow)
sched, err := specParser.Parse("15 */3 *")
// Same as above, just makes Dow optional
specParser := NewParser(Dom | Month | DowOptional)
sched, err := specParser.Parse("15 */3")
type Schedule ¶
type Schedule interface {
// Next returns the next activation time, later than the given time.
// Next is invoked initially, and then each time the job is run.
Next(time.Time) time.Time
}
Schedule describes a job's duty cycle.
func ParseStandard ¶
ParseStandard returns a new crontab schedule representing the given standardSpec (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cron). It requires 5 entries representing: minute, hour, day of month, month and day of week, in that order. It returns a descriptive error if the spec is not valid.
It accepts
- Standard crontab specs, e.g. "* * * * ?"
- Descriptors, e.g. "@midnight", "@every 1h30m"
type ScheduleParser ¶
ScheduleParser is an interface for schedule spec parsers that return a Schedule
type SpecSchedule ¶
type SpecSchedule struct {
Second, Minute, Hour, Dom, Month, Dow uint64
// Override location for this schedule.
Location *time.Location
}
SpecSchedule specifies a duty cycle (to the second granularity), based on a traditional crontab specification. It is computed initially and stored as bit sets.
