2.2.4.4. Reminder Period Job

The Calendar application of eXo Platform sends event reminders by using the email reminder plugin configuration. You will probably need to adjust this configuration to meet your own needs. The feature is based on a periodic poll of the stored reminders.

You must use the following target component to use the plugin in this configuration:


<target-component>org.exoplatform.services.scheduler.JobSchedulerService</target-component>

The configuration can be found here.


<component-plugin>

      <name>RecordsJob</name>

      <set-method>addPeriodJob</set-method>

      <type>org.exoplatform.calendar.service.ReminderPeriodJob</type>

      <description>add e-mail reminder job to the JobSchedulerService</description>
