[jira] [Created] (SLING-3139) Provide a way to schedule jobs

Carsten Ziegeler created SLING-3139:
---------------------------------------

             Summary: Provide a way to schedule jobs
                 Key: SLING-3139
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SLING-3139
             Project: Sling
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Extensions
    Affects Versions: Extensions Event 3.2.0
            Reporter: Carsten Ziegeler
            Assignee: Carsten Ziegeler
             Fix For: Extensions Event 3.2.2


The current way of scheduling jobs is not very user friendly: it requires to send an event via event admin. We should add a java api to create scheduled job creation.

In addition, we could add a new queue type: maintenance queue which is an order queue with the difference of running jobs exactly at the point of time when they are created. So a scheduled maintenance job is executed exactly at the scheduled time - unless another job is currently running.

Apart from starting such jobs, stopping a job would be another nice addition
