I want to create some functions in ASP.NET Web API, which should be executed daily at specific time and do specific task like update statuses/Records/Generating Emails, SMS.
Should i create a TaskService in Code
using System;
using Microsoft.Win32.TaskScheduler;
class Program
{
static void Main(string[] args)
{
// Get the service on the local machine
using (TaskService ts = new TaskService())
{
// Create a new task definition and assign properties
TaskDefinition td = ts.NewTask();
td.RegistrationInfo.Description = "Does something";
// Create a trigger that will fire the task at this time every other day
td.Triggers.Add(new DailyTrigger { DaysInterval = 2 });
// Create an action that will launch Notepad whenever the trigger fires
td.Actions.Add(new ExecAction("notepad.exe", "c:\\test.log", null));
// Register the task in the root folder
ts.RootFolder.RegisterTaskDefinition(@"Test", td);
// Remove the task we just created
ts.RootFolder.DeleteTask("Test");
}
}
}
or should i create a .bat file and create a new task in Task Scheduler.
