Create a Cron Using Cron Expressions

Use this SDK to implement crons to schedule the submission of jobs to job pools. However, the configuration of the cron will be defined using regex-like expressions called Cron Expressions.

	target_name: 'target_function', // set the target function's name (optional) (either target_id or target_name is mandatory)
	// target_id: '123467890', // set the target functions's Id (optional) (either target_id or target_name is mandatory)

	// jobpool_id: '1234567890' // set the Id of the function jobpool (optional) (either jobpool_name or jobpool_id is mandatory)

		number_of_retries: 2, // set the number of retries
		retry_interval: 15 * 60 // set the retry  interval
	}, // set job config - job retries => 2 retries in 15 mins (optional)
	params: {
		arg1: 'test',
		arg2: 'job'
	}, // set params to be passed to target function (optional)
};

// create expression cron details
const expressionCron = {
	cron_name: 'expression_cron', // set a name for the cron (unique)
	description: 'expression_cron', // set a description for the cron (optional)
	cron_status: true, // set the cron status as enabled
	cron_type: 'CronExpression', // set the cron type as Calendar for daily, monthly and yearly
	cron_expression: '0 0 * 1 1', // set the cron expression
	// timezone: 'America/Los_Angeles', // set the timezone (optional)
	cron_detail: {}, // set the cron details
	job_meta: jobMeta // set function job meta

};

// create expression cron 
const expressionCronDetails = await jobScheduling.CRON.createCron(expressionCron);
