Supertask is a convenience task runner for programming recurrent or otherwise scheduled jobs, based on the excellent APScheduler, FastAPI, Pydantic, SQLAlchemy, and uv packages, amongst others.
You can use Supertask to invoke time-driven actions like the venerable cron daemon and the contemporary systemd timers are doing it. It can be used both as a standalone program/service, and as a library.

- Store jobs in databases supported by SQLAlchemy.
- Supertask aims for DWIM-like usefulness and UX, and provides CLI-, HTTP-, and other interfaces.
- Optionally, jobs can be pre-seeded from a JSON file
config.json, either from the local filesystem, or from a wide range of remote locations. When using the filesystem, a watchdog monitors the file for changes, in order to keep the schedules up to date.
Please note that Supertask is a work in progress, and to be considered alpha-quality software. Contributions of all kinds are much welcome, in order to make it more solid, and to add features.
Breaking changes should be expected until a 1.0 release, so applying version pinning is strongly recommended when consuming the packages.
