Method: Allora::CronLine#next_time

Defined in:
lib/allora/cron_line.rb

#next_time(time) ⇒ Time

Returns the next time that this cron line is supposed to ‘fire’

Note that the time instance returned will be in the same time zone that the given start point Time (thus a result in the local time zone will be passed if no start time is specified (search start time set to Time.now))

Examples:


Allora::CronLine.new('30 7 * * *').next_time(
  Time.mktime(2008, 10, 24, 7, 29))
#=> Fri Oct 24 07:30:00 -0500 2008

Allora::CronLine.new('30 7 * * *').next_time(
  Time.utc(2008, 10, 24, 7, 29))
#=> Fri Oct 24 07:30:00 UTC 2008

Allora::CronLine.new('30 7 * * *').next_time(
  Time.utc(2008, 10, 24, 7, 29)).localtime
#=> Fri Oct 24 02:30:00 -0500 2008

Parameters:

  • time (Time) —

    the time from which to compute the next time

Returns:

  • (Time) —

    the next time after the given Time
