Module Refresh Time

cowboysdude

@mumblebaj in some modules at the top of the main js file you may see this ->

updateInterval: 50 * 60 * 1000,

Or you could add it to a module if need be.

@cowboysdude but he wanted to wake up at a specific time of day

so,
create a date object with the target date and time,
extract its milliseconds,
subtract now ms from that= wait_ms,
setTimeout(fn, wait_ms)

cowboysdude

@sdetweil Yes you are right on both accounts :)

@cowboysdude I love it when you old timers get into it… I am looking at the @sdetweil suggestions. Thought there might have been an easier way.

@mumblebaj u can of course add ANOTHER library, only accessable from node_helper…

seems a lot of work for one little routine… with 1 line of code

and you can use moment too

mumblebaj

@sdetweil Yep, i will look at your suggestion. Keeps it nice and tidy

@mumblebaj that last link shows both Date() and moment() approaches
