Job Repeat

If you have a task that needs to be processed repeatedly on a specific schedule there are a number of packages on NPM you can use to help you achieve this. However, if you need a job to repeat with a simple delay between each run, rethinkdb-job-queue can do this for you.

When you create a Job object you can set the repeat and the repeatDelay options. These allow you to repeat the processing of jobs either for a fixed number of times or continuously.

By setting the repeat option to true the job will continually repeat after waiting for the repeatDelay time period. Alternatively, you can set the repeat option to a number and the job will be processed and then repeated the correct number of times.
