I have a scenario where i have to give user notification using WorkManager at specific time.
How can i schedule Work at specific time, and it should show up even if user force kills the app. or app is not running.
My Current code is as below :
Data d = new Data.Builder().putInt(IntentConstants.SCHEDULE_ID, scheduleData.getScheduleID()).build();
OneTimeWorkRequest compressionWork =
new OneTimeWorkRequest.Builder(ScheduleWorker.class)
.setInputData(d)
.build();
WorkManager.getInstance().enqueue(compressionWork);
I think i have found an easy and working solution. It works 100%.
We have to get current time in milliseconds and required specific time to trigger it in milliseconds then you have to calculate specific time - current time.
I have my solution (working code below) :
Data d = new Data.Builder()
.putInt(IntentConstants.SCHEDULE_ID, scheduleData.getScheduleID())
.build();
long currentTime= System.currentTimeMillis();
long specificTimeToTrigger = c.getTimeInMillis();
long delayToPass = specificTimeToTrigger - currentTime;
OneTimeWorkRequest compressionWork =
new OneTimeWorkRequest.Builder(ScheduleWorker.class)
.setInputData(d)
.setInitialDelay(delayToPass, TimeUnit.MILLISECONDS)
.build();
WorkManager.getInstance().enqueue(compressionWork);
Main Logic is in the delayToPass = currentTime (in Millis) - specificTimeToTrigger (in Millis)
