Add an expiration date/time for an applet #244

Open maddox opened 2 years ago

maddox commented 2 years ago

Obviously the scheduling of applets is solid gold on Tidbyt, but being able to schedule an expiration of an applet would be amazing.

I love being able to schedule my applets to create the experience that I want. But sometimes I add messages/info with applets that are ephemeral. Example:

And rather than having to go back to remove these applets, to prevent stale info from being on our Tidbyt, it would be even better if I could set an expiration date/time.

That way, the applet could show until I want it, and will fall off the list without having to manually mange it.

This is very similar to this request: https://github.com/tidbyt/pixlet/issues/229

Clearly being able to set a TTL on a webp that is sent to the device would be really useful.
