    In retrospect I only wanted to be able to hide a module now and then LOL

    NEVER thought it would turn into such an awesome module!!!

    Thanks @ianperrin !!!

      @cowboysdude @ianperrin how would would I implement a schedule so that a module appeared for 5 minutes, then disappear and reappear in 5 minutes time?

      I’ve tried this

      module_schedule: { */5 * * * * },
      

      2nd edit- I thought I’d got it with this…

      module_schedule: { from: '*/2 * * * *', to: '*/3 * * * *'},

        Yes that should make it run every five minutes…

        Copy and try this without brackets…

        '*/5 * * * *'

        example - schedule: ‘30 9 * * *’,

          Try this

          module_schedule: {from: '0/10 * * * *',  to: '5/10 * * * *'}, 
          

          Which should equate to the module being

          • shown every 10 minutes starting from 0 minutes past the hour, i.e. 0, 10, 20 etc
          • hidden every 10 minutes starting from 5 minutes past the hour, i.e. 5, 15, 25 etc

              Thank you and no worries.

              Unfortunately, I’ve just done a quick test with the expressions I posted above and they didn’t work. :(

              If you check the cron expressions i suggested using crontab.guru, it would appear they are non-standard. Therefore, I suspect they are not supported by the node cron module.

              Not to worry, there’s always a solution! crontab.org states that step values can be used in conjunction with ranges. So the expressions I believe you require are as follows:

              module_schedule: {from: '0-59/10 * * * *',  to: '5-59/10 * * * *'},

                  Wow - someone is keen ;)

                  The first iteration of #4 has been committed. Global schedules can now be added to show/hide/dim all modules - see the updated documentation for more info.

                  On the to list is to

                  • add support for showing/hiding/dimming modules in groups
                  • add the ability to exclude specific modules from the global schedules

                  #6 comes afterwards when I can switch my dev environment to the develop branch

                    @MichMich

                    • one schedule can now be used to hide/show/dim all modules - see global scheduling
                    • one schedule can now be create to hide/show/dim a group of modules - see group schedules

                    To do:

                    • add the ability to exclude specific modules from the global/group schedules
                    • unit and regression tests ;)

                      Nice work! LockStrings are not yet implemented, right? Until then I can’t use the module.
