Recurring::Schedule
by Chris Anderson
http://recurring.rubyforge.org
== DESCRIPTION:
Recurring allows you to define Schedules, which can tell you whether or not a given Time falls in the Schedule, as well as being able to return a list of times which match the Schedule within a given range.
Schedules can be like:
* Every Tuesday at 5pm
* The 1st and 15th of every other month
* Every 2 hours
* The first Friday of every month at 11:15am and 4:45:15pm
= See more examples at Recurring::Schedule documentation
# This Schedule will match every Tuesday at 5pm
@rs = Recurring::Schedule.new :unit => 'weeks', :weekdays => 'tuesday', :times => '5pm'
@rs.include?(Time.utc(2006,12,12,17)) #=> true
@rs.include?(Time.utc(2006,12,13,17)) #=> false
= Features
* Fast searching of long ranges for matching times.
* Ability to define Schedules in a few flexible ways.
* Extensive RSpec specifications (run "rake spec" to see them)
* Extensive RSpec specifications (run "rake spec" to see them)
= Problems / Todo
* Untested timezone support
* Plans to offer complex Schedule and Masks
== REQUIREMENTS:
