Hi Omar, I've posted a feature request for schedule module with my wishlist. Others can add to that. :) http://drupal.org/node/98863 Cheers, -- Sammy Spets Synerger Pty Ltd http://synerger.com On 21-Nov-06 13:48, Omar Abdel-Wahab wrote:
Hi all,
I was in #drupal couple days ago chatting with dww and rDoughlass about dbbackup and dba.
The the discussion drifted to this point:
Why not introduce a module that will allow both modules and users to add scheduled tasks to Drupal.
I mean, instead of every module adding its own logic to maintain a task over a specific period/schedule, why not introduct module developer with a new hook that will provide an array of scheduled functions to run. And will also allow users to call some urls/function calls on scheduled basis.
This won't replace or rewrite the functionality provided by Actions and Workflow module or even do what schedule module does.
It's a re-designed scheduler module that may replace cron.
What do you all think?
Omar
