One-Off Job

You can run the simplest job this way.

Tips

Misfire Mode: Smart

Ahead of Time Job Registration

If you have a static set of jobs, you can register them ahead of time using something like this. If the durable flag is true, then the job will stay dormant until its triggered.

public async Task DoSomething(IScheduler scheduler, CancellationToken ct)
{
    var job = JobBuilder.Create<AnExampleJob>()
                        .WithIdentity("name", "group")
                        .Build();
    
    var replace = true;
    var durable = true;
    await scheduler.AddJob(job, replace, durable, ct);
}

To trigger the job later, simply call TriggerJob like below:

public async Task DoSomething(IScheduler scheduler, CancellationToken ct)
{
    await scheduler.TriggerJob(new JobKey("name", "group"), ct);
}

If you want to adjust the JobDataMap

public async Task DoSomething(IScheduler scheduler, CancellationToken ct)
{
    var jobData = new JobDataMap();
    await scheduler.TriggerJob(new JobKey("name", "group"), jobData, ct);
}

Dynamic Registration

In this scenario, you may have a dynamic set of jobs and need to generate both the job and trigger on the fly.

public async Task DoSomething(IScheduler scheduler, CancellationToken ct)
{
    var job = JobBuilder.Create<AnExampleJob>()
                        .WithIdentity("name", "group")
                        .Build();

    var trigger = TriggerBuilder.Create()
        .WithIdentity("name", "group")
        .StartNow()
        .Build();

    await scheduler.ScheduleJob(job, trigger, ct);
}

The above is the same as:

public async Task DoSomething(IScheduler scheduler, CancellationToken ct)
{
    var job = JobBuilder.Create<AnExampleJob>()
                        .WithIdentity("name", "group")
                        .Build();

    var trigger = TriggerBuilder.Create()
        .WithIdentity("name", "group")
        .WithSimpleSchedule()
        .StartNow()
        .Build();

    await scheduler.ScheduleJob(job, trigger, ct);
}
