Yes, it's annoying to have generated output in version control, but not
sure yet if we want to keep Teal. It seems to do breaking syntax changes
somewhat often.]]> Kim Alvefur <zash@zash.se> Fri, 09 May 2025 00:53:56 +0200 mod_cloud_notify, mod_cron, mod_invites: Add 'prosody.' prefix to requires http://hg.omfa.de/prosody-hg/log/1aa7efabeacb/plugins/mod_cron.lua Matthew Wild <mwild1@gmail.com> Sat, 15 Feb 2025 10:31:37 +0000 mod_cron: Don't run tasks if loaded inside prosodyctl http://hg.omfa.de/prosody-hg/log/899453f11f50/plugins/mod_cron.lua
It's common for modules to depend on mod_cron, and this can lead to it loading
inside prosodyctl, where we don't really want to run any cron tasks.]]> Matthew Wild <mwild1@gmail.com> Tue, 07 Jan 2025 18:06:29 +0000 mod_cron: Fix log format to account for float that was integer before http://hg.omfa.de/prosody-hg/log/98a6ec4ce140/plugins/mod_cron.lua Kim Alvefur <zash@zash.se> Sat, 24 Feb 2024 14:35:17 +0100 mod_cron: Allow configuring various "internal" delay parameters http://hg.omfa.de/prosody-hg/log/92301fa7a673/plugins/mod_cron.lua
Notably, it is now possible to add a randomized spread factor to the check
interval.]]> Matthew Wild <mwild1@gmail.com> Tue, 20 Feb 2024 17:31:17 +0000 mod_cron: Rebuild with new LuaFormatter settings (tabs!) http://hg.omfa.de/prosody-hg/log/a22e3a980178/plugins/mod_cron.lua Kim Alvefur <zash@zash.se> Thu, 30 Nov 2023 18:42:56 +0100 mod_cron: Update Teal source and rebuild http://hg.omfa.de/prosody-hg/log/9f1f1e7afdbd/plugins/mod_cron.lua Matthew Wild <mwild1@gmail.com> Thu, 30 Nov 2023 12:41:26 +0000 mod_cron: Rename variable to fix shadowing (#luacheck) http://hg.omfa.de/prosody-hg/log/fda192db8f18/plugins/mod_cron.lua Matthew Wild <mwild1@gmail.com> Thu, 30 Nov 2023 11:42:52 +0000 mod_cron: Add shell command to list registered cron tasks with status http://hg.omfa.de/prosody-hg/log/6f9b15757384/plugins/mod_cron.lua Matthew Wild <mwild1@gmail.com> Thu, 30 Nov 2023 11:38:59 +0000 mod_cron: Make task frequencies configurable in overly generic manner http://hg.omfa.de/prosody-hg/log/ffd3dadf6247/plugins/mod_cron.lua
Requested feature for many modules, notably MAM and file sharing.]]> Kim Alvefur <zash@zash.se> Sun, 22 Oct 2023 18:58:02 +0200 mod_cron: Remove unused import [luacheck] http://hg.omfa.de/prosody-hg/log/d50bee584969/plugins/mod_cron.lua
Use of datetime was removed in 6ac5ad578565]]> Kim Alvefur <zash@zash.se> Sun, 15 Oct 2023 16:41:25 +0200 mod_cron: Load last task run time inside task runner to fix async http://hg.omfa.de/prosody-hg/log/6ac5ad578565/plugins/mod_cron.lua
This ensures that all interactions with storage happen inside an async
thread, allowing async waiting to be performed in storage drivers.]]> Kim Alvefur <zash@zash.se> Sat, 14 Oct 2023 22:32:33 +0200 mod_cron: Revert bbd3ac65640d http://hg.omfa.de/prosody-hg/log/9b720c38fee8/plugins/mod_cron.lua
Maybe it is better to run daily and weekly tasks 'now' on the theory
that people set these things up during times that are appropriate for
maintenance already, so the same time next day or next week might be
fine for periodic cleanup.]]> Kim Alvefur <zash@zash.se> Sun, 30 Jul 2023 13:03:40 +0200 plugins: Prefix module imports with prosody namespace http://hg.omfa.de/prosody-hg/log/74b9e05af71e/plugins/mod_cron.lua Kim Alvefur <zash@zash.se> Fri, 24 Mar 2023 13:15:28 +0100 mod_cron: Fix recording last task run time #1751 http://hg.omfa.de/prosody-hg/log/8b42575738f0/plugins/mod_cron.lua
The type checks, they do nothing!

Observed: Tasks that were supposed to run weekly or daily were running
each hour.]]> Kim Alvefur <zash@zash.se> Thu, 05 May 2022 14:10:59 +0200 mod_cron: Allow for a small amount of timer drift http://hg.omfa.de/prosody-hg/log/7f25ac9d8f0d/plugins/mod_cron.lua
If the timer activates a bit early then a task might be just a few
seconds short of being allowed to run. This would run such a task rather
than wait another hour.

The value 0.5% chosen so that a weekly task does not run an entire hour
earlier than last time.]]> Kim Alvefur <zash@zash.se> Sat, 15 Jan 2022 09:09:24 +0100 mod_cron: Expose the One Timer via module environment http://hg.omfa.de/prosody-hg/log/f6fff0658108/plugins/mod_cron.lua
This makes it easier to reschedule or otherwise manipulate the timer
from e.g. the shell, which is handy for debugging.]]> Kim Alvefur <zash@zash.se> Sat, 04 Dec 2021 17:46:37 +0100 mod_cron: Add a 'weekly' job frequency http://hg.omfa.de/prosody-hg/log/cbed7d8d8f35/plugins/mod_cron.lua Kim Alvefur <zash@zash.se> Fri, 03 Dec 2021 09:05:41 +0100 mod_cron: Initialize timestamp of new tasks to start of period http://hg.omfa.de/prosody-hg/log/5a8c6f9a4583/plugins/mod_cron.lua
Makes it more generic so new periods (e.g. weekly etc) can be added
easily.]]> Kim Alvefur <zash@zash.se> Fri, 03 Dec 2021 09:01:09 +0100 mod_cron: Follow convention of imports at the top http://hg.omfa.de/prosody-hg/log/00c57684cf20/plugins/mod_cron.lua Kim Alvefur <zash@zash.se> Fri, 03 Dec 2021 08:57:40 +0100 mod_cron: Initialize daily tasks so they run around midnight UTC http://hg.omfa.de/prosody-hg/log/bbd3ac65640d/plugins/mod_cron.lua
Eventually the goal is to have daily tasks run while there is little
activity, but that will vary with the server and the usage patterns of
its users. This is a start anyway.]]> Kim Alvefur <zash@zash.se> Fri, 03 Dec 2021 00:11:31 +0100 mod_cron: Initial commit of periodic task runner http://hg.omfa.de/prosody-hg/log/3d5135e8a2a7/plugins/mod_cron.lua
A number of modules now have periodic tasks that need to run, e.g. for
cleaning out old messages or files. This has highlighted a need for
coordinating and optimizing scheduling of such tasks.]]> Kim Alvefur <zash@zash.se> Sun, 21 Nov 2021 15:50:36 +0100
