Carsten Ziegeler commented on SLING-3139:
-----------------------------------------
I've added a first api to the JobManager to create scheduled jobs, to query
information about scheduled jobs and unschedule them
In addition I've added a method to stop a job, a job executor implementation
can check periodically the context if it has been stopped and act accordingly.
Not sure if we need a maintenance queue as an ordered queue should do the trick
as well
> Provide a way to schedule jobs

> Project: Sling
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Extensions
> Affects Versions: Extensions Event 3.2.0
> Reporter: Carsten Ziegeler
> Assignee: Carsten Ziegeler
> Fix For: Extensions Event 3.2.2
>
>
> The current way of scheduling jobs is not very user friendly: it requires to
> send an event via event admin. We should add a java api to create scheduled
> job creation.
> In addition, we could add a new queue type: maintenance queue which is an
> order queue with the difference of running jobs exactly at the point of time
> when they are created. So a scheduled maintenance job is executed exactly at
> the scheduled time - unless another job is currently running.
> Apart from starting such jobs, stopping a job would be another nice addition
