Enhanced multiple schedule support 📅
prefect.yaml now supports specifying multiple schedules via the schedules key.
This allows you to define multiple schedules for a single deployment, and each schedule can have its own cron, interval, or rrule configuration:
...
schedules:
- cron: "0 0 * * *"
active: false
- interval: 3600
active: true
- rrule: "FREQ=YEARLY"
active: trueIn addition you can specify multiple schedules via arguments to prefect deploy:
We've also added support for multiple schedules to This will create a deployment with three schedules, one that runs every hour, one that runs every two hours, and one that runs every four hours. For more advanced cases, use the Dive into these new scheduling capabilities today and streamline your workflows like never before.
prefect deploy ... --cron '4 * * * *' --cron '1 * * * *' --rrule 'FREQ=DAILY'
More detail
flow.serve, flow.deploy and prefect.runner.serve. You can provide multiple schedules by passing a list to the cron, interval, or rrule arguments:
import datetime
import random
from prefect import flow
@flow
def trees():
tree = random.choice(["🌳", "🌴", "🌲", "🌵"])
print(f"Here's a happy little tree: {tree}")
if __name__ == "__main__":
trees.serve(
name="trees",
interval=[3600, 7200, 14400],
)
schedules argument.
trees.serve(
name="trees",
schedules=[
IntervalSchedule(interval=datetime.timedelta(minutes=30)),
{"schedule": RRuleSchedule(rrule="FREQ=YEARLY"), "active": True},
MinimalDeploymentSchedule(schedule=CronSchedule(cron="0 0 * * *"), active=False),
]
)
