.on_event('startup') is deprecated

[vorenhoutgithub]

The documentation is here https://fastapi.tiangolo.com/advanced/events/#async-context-manager
Can you also add that to the docs here?

The functions repeat_at and repeat_every work for the time being after the depreciation of the alternative events like app.on_startup().
I'll try to figure out a solution for this issue asap. Need to add our functions in the lifespan of the app.

Any update on this?

This library seems exactly the right solution to my problem, but yes, exactly the same concern that it is not possible to use it with the newest version. Are there any updates or an expected time when there might be an update?

[priyanshu-panwar]

I found a workaround for this.

from fastapi import FastAPI
from contextlib import asynccontextmanager
from fastapi_utilities.repeat import repeat_every, repeat_at


@asynccontextmanager
async def lifespan(app: FastAPI):
    # --- startup ---
    await test()
    test2()
    yield
    # --- shutdown ---


app = FastAPI(lifespan=lifespan)


# Repeat Every Example
@repeat_every(seconds=2)
async def test():
    print("test")

# Repeat At Example
@repeat_at(cron="* * * * *")
def test2():
    print("test2")

This works fine.
We need to useasynccontextmanager.
Only difference is to call our tasks from lifespan function instead of using on_event function.
Till then please use this and let me know the reviews.

I feel this solution is enough for us.
@mareksDev @cm-halfspace @vorenhoutgithub Please let me know and merge the above PR.
