hubot-schedule

[Japanese: README_ja.md]

hubot-schedule is a message scheduler runs on hubot.

It allows you to schedule a message in both cron-style and datetime-based format pattern. It is for time-based scheduling, not interval-based scheduling.

Since hubot-schedule uses node-schedule to manage schedule, some of the cron features are not supported. Please see node-schedule for more details.

This script is greatly inspired by hubot-cron. At first, I wanted a datetime-based scheduler. As I start developing this, I noticed that node-schedule also suppports cron-style scheduling, so I changed my mind to develop a scheduler that supports both cron-style and datetime-based format.

Installation

Add hubot-schedule to your package.json.

"dependencies": {
  "hubot-schedule": "~0.1.2"
}

Run npm install.

$ npm install

Add hubot-schedule to external-scripts.json.

> cat external-scripts.json
> ["hubot-schedule"]

Usage

Hubot> hubot help schedule

Hubot> hubot schedule add "2015-01-16 10:00" Let's release this script!

Hubot> hubot schedule list
6738: [ Fri Jan 16 2015 10:00:00 GMT+0900 (JST) ] #Shell Let's release this script and share with everyone!
9735: [ 0 10 * * 1-5 ] #Shell Don't forget to brew coffee :)

Let's release this script and share with everyone!
(Hubot posts the message at 2015-01-16 10:00:00 and schedule will be removed automatically)

Hubot> hubot schedule del 9735
9735: Schedule canceled

Hubot> hubot schedule list
Message is not scheduled

Hubot> hubot schedule add "0 10 * * 1-5" hubot image me coffee
9735: Schedule created
(hubot can process messages sent by hubot-schedule, so you can ask hubot to do something at the scheduled time, like post an image of coffee. You can disable it by setting environment variable `HUBOT_SCHEDULE_DONT_RECEIVE=1`)

If you need to persist scheduled messages, use hubot-brain persistent module like hubot-redis-brain.

Setting environment variable HUBOT_SCHEDULE_DEBUG=1 will show some debug messages.
