Sched: Scheduling library for alarms and timers
|
||
|
====================================
|
||
|
|
||
|
This provides boot code, a library and tools for alarms and timers.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Other apps can use this to provide alarm functionality.
|
||
|
|
||
|

||
|
|
||
|
The Alarm app allows you to add/modify any running timers.
|
||
|

|
Internals / Library
|
||
|
-------------------
|
||
|
|
||
|
Alarms are stored in an array in `sched.json`, and take the form:
|
||
|
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
{
|
||
|
id : "mytimer", // optional ID for this alarm/timer, so apps can easily find *their* timers
|
||
|
on : true, // is the alarm enabled?
|
||
|
t : 23400000, // Time of day since midnight in ms (if a timer, this is set automatically when timer starts)
|
||
|
dow : 0b1111111, // Binary encoding for days of the week to run alarm on
|
||
|
// SUN = 1
|
||
|
// MON = 2
|
||
|
// TUE = 4
|
||
|
// WED = 8
|
||
|
// THU = 16
|
||
|
// FRI = 32
|
||
|
// SAT = 64
|
||
|
|
||
|
date : "2022-04-04", // OPTIONAL date for the alarm, in YYYY-MM-DD format
|
||
|
// eg (new Date()).toISOString().substr(0,10)
|
||
|
msg : "Eat food", // message to display
|
||
|
last : 0, // last day of the month we alarmed on - so we don't alarm twice in one day!
|
||
|
rp : true, // repeat the alarm every day?
|
||
|
vibrate : "...", // OPTIONAL pattern of '.', '-' and ' ' to use for when buzzing out this alarm (defaults to '..' if not set)
|
||
|
hidden : false, // OPTIONAL if false, the widget should not show an icon for this alarm
|
||
|
as : false, // auto snooze
|
||
|
timer : 5*60*1000, // OPTIONAL - if set, this is a timer and it's the time in ms
|
||
|
js : "load('myapp.js')" // OPTIONAL - a JS command to execute when the alarm activates (*instead* of loading 'sched.js')
|
||
|
// when this code is run, you're responsible for setting alarm.on=false (or removing the alarm)
|
||
|
data : { ... } // OPTIONAL - your app can store custom data in here if needed
|
||
|
}
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
The [`sched` library](https://github.com/espruino/BangleApps/blob/master/apps/sched/lib.js) contains
|
||
|
a few helpful functions for getting/setting alarms and timers, but is intentionally sparse so as not to
|
||
|
use too much RAM.
|
||
|
|
||
|
It can be used as follows:
|
||
|
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
// add/update an existing alarm
|
||
|
require("sched").setAlarm("mytimer", {
|
||
|
msg : "Wake up",
|
||
|
timer : 10*60*1000, // 10 Minutes
|
||
|
});
|
||
|
// Ensure the widget and alarm timer updates to schedule the new alarm properly
|
||
|
require("sched").reload();
|
||
|
|
||
|
// Get the time to the next alarm for us
|
||
|
var timeToNext = require("sched").getTimeToAlarm(require("sched").getAlarm("mytimer"));
|
||
|
// timeToNext===undefined if no alarm or alarm disabled
|
||
|
|
||
|
// delete an alarm
|
||
|
require("sched").setAlarm("mytimer", undefined);
|
||
|
// reload after deleting...
|
||
|
require("sched").reload();
|
||
|
|
||
|
// Or add an alarm that runs your own code - in this case
|
||
|
// loading the settings app. The alarm will not be removed/stopped
|
||
|
// automatically.
|
||
|
require("sched").setAlarm("customrunner", {
|
||
|
js : "load('setting.app.js')",
|
||
|
timer : 1*60*1000, // 1 Minute
|
||
|
});
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
If your app requires alarms, you can specify that the alarms app needs to
|
||
|
be installed by adding `"dependencies": {"scheduler":"type"},` to your metadata.
