Basically it's a periodic GcmNetworkManager task that should run every day at a specific time, it's persistent so it survives across reboots, it's period is 86400000L (24h), but i need it to run the first time on a specific time.
I've already created the TaskService class, added it to the manifest and created the task, is there a way of doing this?
This is my TaskService class:
public class AgendaTaskService extends GcmTaskService {
private static final String TAG = "AgendaTaskService";
public static final String TAG_TASK_UPDATE_EVENTS = "AgendaTaskService";
@Override
public int onRunTask(TaskParams taskParams) {
Log.i(TAG,"Running task");
switch (taskParams.getTag()){
case TAG_TASK_UPDATE_EVENTS:
Log.i(TAG,"Updating agenda events");
//TODO HERE IS WHERE MY TASK WILL RUN
return GcmNetworkManager.RESULT_SUCCESS;
default: return GcmNetworkManager.RESULT_FAILURE;
}
}
}
And this is how I'm creating the task:
GcmNetworkManager gcmNetworkManager = GcmNetworkManager.getInstance(this);
PeriodicTask task = new PeriodicTask.Builder()
.setService(AgendaTaskService.class)
.setTag(AgendaTaskService.TAG_TASK_UPDATE_EVENTS)
.setPersisted(true)
.setPeriod(30L)
.setUpdateCurrent(true)
.build();
gcmNetworkManager.schedule(task);
Use AlarmManager
to schedule a PendingIntent
to start a Service
at your trigger time, and do whatever GCM-specific scheduling you need when that service runs.
