@qgustavor/later

This project is a ES Modules fork of Later. Later is a library for describing recurring schedules and calculating their future occurrences. It supports a very flexible schedule definition including support for composite schedules and schedule exceptions. Create new schedules manually, via Cron expression, via natural language expressions, or using a fully chainable API.

This fork also removed benchmarks, tests and all the other fuss I don't plan to maintain. Also, removed global state generated by "later.date.UTC()".

Features

Types of schedules supported by Later:

• Run a report on the last day of every month at 12 AM except in December
• Install patches on the 2nd Tuesday of every month at 4 AM
• Gather CPU metrics every 10 mins Mon - Fri and every 30 mins Sat - Sun
• Send out a scary e-mail at 13:13:13 every Friday the 13th

Documentation

WIP. In the meanwhile see parent fork's documentation, but check the code or the library on a REPL since A LOT of refactoring was done in order to convert the library to ES Modules and allow for tree shaking.
