+Timegenerators
|
|
|
+===============
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+A "timegenerator" is something that describe _when_ you want to do something.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+There are 3 kinds of timegenerators in larigira:
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+single
|
|
|
+------------
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+With single, you just set a single time the event should happen.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+frequency
|
|
|
+--------------
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+Sometimes you have something happening very regularly. For example you might want a jingle every 30minutes, or
|
|
|
+a specific show every friday at 8PM.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+cron
|
|
|
+----------
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+Sometimes your specification is very complex.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+For example, you might want a specific message to be sent at 10:00, 13:00, 15:00 and 18:00, but only during
|
|
|
+working days. That would be hard to do with a single `frequency` event, so you could use a cron
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ 0 10,13,15,18 * * 1-5
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+I know, that's very difficult, but is still a possibility you have. If you want to learn how to write crons,
