Usage Example

from src.scheduling import TaskScheduler, TaskExecutor, TaskPersistence
from src.models.task import ScheduledTask, ScheduleType, Destination

# Initialize components
persistence = TaskPersistence("./data/tasks")
executor = TaskExecutor(summarization_engine, message_processor, discord_client)
scheduler = TaskScheduler(executor, persistence, timezone="UTC")

# Start scheduler
await scheduler.start()

# Create and schedule a daily summary
task = ScheduledTask(
    name="Daily Dev Summary",
    channel_id="123456789",
    guild_id="987654321",
    schedule_type=ScheduleType.DAILY,
    schedule_time="09:00",
    destinations=[Destination(type=DestinationType.DISCORD_CHANNEL,
                              target="123456789", format="embed")]
)

task_id = await scheduler.schedule_task(task)
print(f"Scheduled task: {task_id}")

# Get task status
status = await scheduler.get_task_status(task_id)
print(f"Next run: {status['next_run_time']}")
print(f"Success rate: {status['metadata']['success_rate']}%")
