cron style update cycle for changing datasets #57

Open rjdave opened 8 years ago

Are there any plans to add a cron-like auto update option? I have a several datasets that update at specific times from 30 minutes to daily. It would be nice, especially for the datasets that update daily, to be able to ask ncWMS2 to update shortly after the dataset is updated. Currently, worst case would be having to wait just under 24 hours after new data arrives before ncWMS2 would be aware of it.

There are no plans to do that at present, but it's a possible enhancement we'd consider.

In the meantime, you can always change your refresh rate to something more regular than 1 day if you want data to be available quicker.
