http://vibed.org/api/vibe.core.core/runTask http://vibed.org/api/vibe.core.core/sleep Run a task in your application setup. Have it sleep until the appointed time, then execute the job in accordance with the prophecy. I'd have it run your daily job in a separate fiber for error isolation. If you want to run it at particular times of day, run if the application crashed before the appointed time, do the right thing with daylight savings, execute once across multiple processes, etc, I don't think that currently exists for vibe.d. It's a decent chunk of work to make all that happen properly.
