Grails, make an action be called repeatedly once a day, week etc - events

Question

I want to have an action o procedure called periodically once a day without the need of having someone logged in.
Is that possible and if it is: How can I do it?
This is my Trigger:
package com.myproj.jobs
class DailyCheck {
static triggers = {
// cron name: 'dailyCheck', cronExpression: "03 * * * * ?"
simple name: 'myJobSimple', repeatInterval: 6000
}
def dailyCheckService
def execute() {
println(">>>>>>>>> DAILY JOB EXECUTES <<<<<<<")
dailyCheckService.checkOffers()
}
}
Part of my build.gradle:
dependencies {
compile "org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter-logging"
compile "org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-autoconfigure"
compile "org.grails:grails-core"
compile "org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter-actuator"

Answer 1

You can use quartz plugin e.g.
build.gradle
dependencies {
compile 'org.grails.plugins:quartz:2.0.12'
}
/grails-app/jobs/MyJob.groovy
class MyJob{
static triggers = {
// fire every day at 12:30
cron name: 'myJobCron', cronExpression: "0 30 12 * * ?"
}
def myService
def execute( context ) {
myService.doStuff()
}
}

This issue was solved by adding a config file in grails-app/conf named QuartzConfig.groovy having the following content:
quartz {
autoStartup = true
jdbcStore = false
}
environments {
test {
quartz {
autoStartup = false
}
}
}
And to Mike W I will add that there is still no logging visible at start so it might have been taken away with this latest version?
