hi @mycoboco,

I have an issue while using cycle at specific time.
It is working at "10:18:20" but its not working at "2018-01-05T10:18:20" and "2018-01-05 10:18:20" .

Do you have any idea about it?

I didn't see a way of doing this but having jobs start between certain times would be nice. For example, I have sensors where I collect data every minute or so during the day time and every 5 minutes or more during the night. Therefore if a time is greater than 07:30 then very 1 minute, if time is greater than 20:00 then every 5 minutes. Thanks, like your OT.

Allow these actions within task functions:

• getting remaining time to next run and
• changing schedules

Given this code

ontime({
    cycle: [ '0', '5', '10', '15', '20', '25', '30', '35', '40', '45', '50', '55' ],
    single: true,
    log: true
}, function (ot) {
    // ...
    ot.done()
})

ontime failed to correctly run the job for 30 and, sometimes, 0.

No problem with single set to false.

ontime({
  cycle: ['10'],
  step: 2,
  log: true,
  single: true
}, (ot) => {
  console.log('run');
  ot.done();
});

gives

[ontime] 0: will wait for NaN step(s) to run

Hi,
Thanks for this, it works great and saves a lot of time.

Is there a way to specify weekdays only and omit weekends?
Or should I just add every day of the week to the array?

I'd like a job that runs every 5 minutes from 7am-9am Mon-Fri.

I would like to terminate or cancel an instant of an onTime so that I could programmically restart it using a different setting. Therefore, I tried using ot.cancel(); I assumed that is what this is for but was unsure.

As a test, I was using the ontime module to trigger every minute and when the minute >= ## then I called ot.cancel().
if(myMin >= 50) ot.cancel();

When I tried using this, I get the following error
/home/web/node_modules/ontime/index.js:209
cancelTimeout(then.timer)
ReferenceError: cancelTimeout is not defined

Ideally, I would like to kill an instance of onTime using the id and use it anywhere in the code with just ot.cancel(id);

Thanks for your help.

Allowing different types of schedules in a single specification is useful, for example, when single: true.
