Jobs Releases

v4

4.1.0 - TBD

Feature

Plain .NET (base TFM) support added — Shiny.Jobs now ships an in-process managed JobManager for Linux, macOS, Blazor WebAssembly, console, and any other non-iOS/Android .NET host. Driven by a recurring timer (default 30s, configurable via JobManager.Interval, min 15s / max 5m). Honours the same BatteryNotLow, DeviceCharging, and RequiredInternetAccess constraints as the native platforms and auto-registers a default JSON filesystem repository under {LocalApplicationData}/Shiny. Jobs only execute while the host process is alive — there is no OS-level scheduler on these targets.

Feature

Blazor WebAssembly (Web) support added via the base Shiny.Jobs package (no separate meta-package). Reference Shiny.Jobs directly and bring in Shiny.Support.DeviceMonitoring.Blazor for IBattery/IConnectivity; optionally add Shiny.Support.Storage.Blazor to persist job state to browser localStorage instead of the default filesystem repository. The in-process scheduler runs while the tab is open. Note: Service Worker / Periodic Background Sync cannot invoke C# jobs because the SW has no access to the Blazor WASM runtime — for background HTTP specifically, use the new Shiny.Net.Http.Blazor package instead.

Fix

Plain .NET AddJobs() now self-registers IObjectStoreBinder and IKeyValueStoreFactory. Previously, resolving JobManager on Linux/Blazor/console hosts threw a DI validation error (CannotResolveService, Shiny.Stores.IObjectStoreBinder) because the binder was only registered by the MAUI platform infrastructure layer.

BREAKING Enhancement

Removed the empty Shiny.Jobs.Blazor meta-package. It contained no code — just project references. Consumers should reference Shiny.Jobs + Shiny.Support.DeviceMonitoring.Blazor (and optionally Shiny.Support.Storage.Blazor) directly.

BREAKING Enhancement

Restructured job scheduling API - Register/Cancel replaced with explicit RegisterPlatformJob, UnRegisterPlatformJob, UnRegisterAllPlatformJobs, and GetPlatformJobs

Enhancement

JobLifecycleTask now manages registered jobs via DI and re-registers on startup

Base Job was not calculating runtime difference properly
