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,
