return values from tasks sent to goChron

[avimess23]

Hi all,
I would like to use goChron for my program but I cant seem to find a built in way to retrieve the return values from the function I am schedualing.
I have concidered using a channel, which would solve the problem, but I wanted to make sure it was absolutely necessary before I change my function's code.

Is there already a way to retrieve said values from the scheduled function?
Thanks

@avimess23 Today this isn't an option. You would have to add a channel in your function to send values back on.

I have considered adding support for this as the Call method https://github.com/go-co-op/gocron/blob/main/gocron.go#L93 does return a slice of []reflect.Values which could be returned on channel. However, the user would then have to handle getting the underlying type of the data. Probably easier to just keep it such that if a user cares about the return values, to instead pass them back on a channel and handle as they see fit.

Thanks so much for your reply!
I understand the trade off.
