OOP Styled Jobs

Every decorator from the last page create one of next classes from your function, but you can create these class yourself. The examples below are as simple as possible without any specific implementation, just the logging. See the previous page for examples with concrete implementations.

Async Job

Use regta.AsyncJob to build a job with this type.

from datetime import timedelta

from regta import AsyncJob


class MyAsyncJob(AsyncJob):
    interval = timedelta(days=7)

    async def func(self):
        return f"Hello from {self.__class__.__name__}!"

Thread Job

Use regta.ThreadJob to build a job with this type.

from datetime import timedelta

from regta import ThreadJob


class MyThreadBasedJob(ThreadJob):
    interval = timedelta(hours=1)

    def func(self):
        return f"Hello from {self.__class__.__name__}!"

Process Job

Use regta.ProcessJob to build a job with this type.

from datetime import timedelta

from regta import ProcessJob


class MyProcessBasedJob(ProcessJob):
    interval = timedelta(hours=24)

    def func(self):
        return f"Hello from {self.__class__.__name__}!"

Code style is only your choice. Just if you have a lot of similar jobs, OOP style may be more useful.

The object-oriented model makes it easy to build up programs by accretion. What this often means, in practice, is that it provides a structured way to write spaghetti code.
