how to add date array with recurring rule

[uzaif313]

I have created scheduling with recurring rule like below

   rule = IceCube::Rule.weekly.day(1,2,3) // Weekly monday ,tuesday and Wednesday
   specefic_dates = ["Sun, 01 Oct 2017", "Sun, 30 Oct 2017"] // now i need to add this dates in recurring 
   rule
  schedule = IceCube::Schedule.new(Date.time)
  schedule.add_recurrence_rule(rule)

will it possible to perform above stuff

Schedule.new takes a start time, not a Rule object.

You can add rules to your schedule using add_recurrence_rule

You can add specific times to your schedule using add_recurrence_time

thanks for response @avit

   rule = IceCube::Rule.weekly.day(1,2,3) // Weekly monday ,tuesday and Wednesday
   specefic_dates = ["Sun, 01 Oct 2017", "Sun, 30 Oct 2017"] // now i need to add this dates in recurring 
   rule
  schedule = IceCube::Schedule.new(Date.time)
  schedule.add_recurrence_rule(rule)
  schedule.add_recurrence_time(specefic_dates)

can i do it with above way?

[avit]

Yes, but not with strings, they should be time objects.

Hi @avit I have added recurrence_time on schedule but when I try to check occurrence on a specific date. its throw an error, below are my steps please check

// t contain icecube schedule object
[14] pry(main)> t.add_recurrence_time(specefic_schedule)
=> [2017-10-01 07:26:08 +0530, 2017-10-08 07:26:08 +0530]

Did you mean?  occurs_on?
               occurs_at?

[avit]

Start here:

NoMethodError: undefined method `occurs_on' for #<IceCube::Schedule:0x00000006636a18>
Did you mean?  occurs_on?
          occurs_at?

[seejohnrun]

@uzaif313 the method is occurs_on? not occurs_on 😄

[uzaif313]

@seejohnrun @avit Ohh sorry, i forgot ? but here is new one please check this one

t.occurs_on?(Time.now+4)
NoMethodError: undefined method `to_i' for [2017-10-02 00:21:26 +0530, 2017-10-09 00:21:26 +0530]:Array
Did you mean?  to_s
               to_a
               to_h
from /home/uzaif/.rvm/gems/ruby-2.3.0/gems/ice_cube-0.16.2/lib/ice_cube/single_occurrence_rule.rb:18:in `next_time'

[seejohnrun]

occurs_on? should take in a Date object ideally

[avit]

Check the docs for add_recurrence_time to see what it expects.

(It looks like we don't have an example of this method in the README, and we should add it.)

[uzaif313]

ohh it take time object but i think its not allow to add array of time object SingleOccurrenceRule
