Quite Confusing Delay Schedule about stevejobs

[msavin]

Hey man - thanks for the interest.

In the example that you used, it would be the same because there are no conflicting options.

However, in this case, there year would become 2037.

Jobs.add("sendReminderEmail", "[email protected]", "The future is here!", {
    on: {
        days: 1,
        hours: 13,
        year: 2036
    }, 
    in: {
        minute: 13,
        year: 1 
    }
});

But in this one, it would be 2036:

Jobs.add("sendReminderEmail", "[email protected]", "The future is here!", {
    in: {
        minute: 13,
        year: 1 
    },
    on: {
        days: 1,
        hours: 13,
        year: 2036
    }, 
});

However, it maybe best to omit that part from the instructions. The thing is, I'm planning to enable functions as an input, so that's where it might get tricky:

Jobs.add("sendReminderEmail", "[email protected]", "The future is here!", {
    in: {
        minute: 13,
        year: 1 
    },
    on: {
        days: 1,
        hours: 13,
        year: function () {
            if (x) { 
                return 2037
            }
        }
    }, 
});

Thanks! It's clear now. 👍

Hey, I think the package is no longer supported, but I haven't find anything better for this than using LaterJS.

Supporting that may be a different package? SteveJobs-meteor-jobs-queue-laterjs?

@luixal not sure which package we are discussing - but maybe this is relevant: Jobs.run now supports a date field so you can plug in any library in there.

Going to close this ticket out as it seems old/resolved - but feel free to open a new one.
