Task
====

The simplest form of tasks are functions that just run Python code, and the easiest way to define them is by using the :func:`quickie.task` decorator.

.. code-block:: python

    from quickie import task

    @task
    def hello():
        print("Hello, World!")


This will return a :class:`quickie.tasks.Task` instance, equivalent to:

.. code-block:: python

    from quickie import Task

    class Task(Task):
        def run(self):
            print("Hello, World!")

The rest of the task classes, such as ``Script`` and ``Command`` are built on top of this class, and simply
replace the ``run`` method with a different implementation.

Function based vs Class based tasks
-----------------------------------

Defining tasks as functions is usually simpler and more concise, but defining them as classes allows for more customization and control.
