Schedule

Triggerstriggercore.trigger.schedule

Fire on a cron schedule: ‘min hour day month weekday’, in the zone its timezone knob picks. ‘0 9 * * *’ fires daily at 09:00, ‘*/15 * * * *’ every 15 minutes, ‘0 9 * * 1’ on Mondays at 09:00. When both day fields are set, either one matches, as in standard cron. It checks each minute and emits a trigger and the firing time once per matching minute.

Trigger. It starts turns on its own: when it fires, the nodes wired to its outputs run.

Example

Five cron fields: minute, hour, day of month, month, day of week (0 or 7 is Sunday). 0 9 * * 1-5 fires at 09:00 on weekdays and */15 * * * * every quarter hour. The node checks the clock every 15 seconds, fires once per matching minute, and skips the minute the graph turned On in, so a Restart never fires twice. time carries the firing time in ISO format, in the timezone you picked. Converted to inputs, cron and timezone are read at each check, so a wire can change the schedule while the graph runs. The scheduled digest guide puts it to work.

• Chat Input: Type a message and send it into the live graph.
• Interval: Fire an event every N seconds.
