Advanced Power Manager for Synology NAS / Feature Requests / #10 Schedule Terms Extensions (First monday in a month, Tuesday every 2 weeks, etc.)

Renaud Métrich - 2017-05-02

Please come up with a date description that would suit your needs and I'll implement it.
Maybe something like "<first|second|third|fourth|fifth> <day of="" week="">".
This description must be easily understandable.

I propose something like the following (combinaisons possible):
monthly on mon 1, tue 2-4
means monthly on first monday and second to fourth tuesday jan, mar 2018 on day 5-10
means on january and march 2018, on day of month 5 to 10

Is that understandable?

Weekly Tag:
"weekly" <interval=1-52|First|Last> <days of="" week="">

Weekly 1 Mon at 08:00 => Every 1 week on Monday at 08:00
Weekly 2 Tue,Thu,Sat at 17:00 => Every 2 weeks on Tuesday and Thursday and Saturday at 17:00
Weekly First Mon at 07:23 => Every first week (of the year) on Monday at 07:23
Weekly Last Sun at 19:11 => Every last week (of the year) on Sunday at 19:11

Monthly Tag:
"monthly" <months> <interval=First|Second|Third|Fourth|Last> <days of="" week="">

Monthly Jan-Jun First Sat at 07:00 => Every first Saturday of the month January to June at 07:00
Monthly Jul,Aug,Sep,Oct,Dec Third Mon,Tue at 23:33 => Every third Monday and Tuesday of the month July to December except November at 23:33
Monthly Second Mon at 09:00 => Every second Monday of all months at 09:00
Monthly Last Sat at 02:00 => Every last Saturday of all months at 02:00

It is more a less like your example - hopefully implementable and logical at all :)

Thank you for the proposal.
Let me think deeper about a new date specification. I hope to implement it in the coming weeks, but I don't promise since I'm very busy these days.

Hi Oliver,
I've started implementing the new regular expressions. I plan to come with the following:

Regular expression: LIST(SPEC) SPEC := ( week WEEKNUM_SELECTOR [ YEAR_SELECTOR ] WEEKDAY_ALL_SELECTOR MONTH_SELECTOR MONTHDAY_SELECTOR [ YEAR_SELECTOR ] MONTH_SELECTOR [ YEAR_SELECTOR ] WEEKDAY_ALL_SELECTOR MONTH_SELECTOR [ YEAR_SELECTOR ] NUMERALWEEKDAY_SELECTOR yearday YEARDAY_SELECTOR [ YEAR_SELECTOR ] ) MONTHDAY_SELECTOR := RLIST(MONTHDAY) MONTH_SELECTOR := ( monthly | RLIST(MONTH) ) NUMERALWEEKDAY_SELECTOR := RLIST(RLIST(NUMERAL) WEEKDAY_SELECTOR) WEEKDAY_ALL_SELECTOR := ( daily | WEEKDAY_SELECTOR ) WEEKDAY_SELECTOR := RLIST(WEEKDAY) WEEKNUM_SELECTOR := RLIST(WEEKNUM) YEARDAY_SELECTOR := RLIST(YEARDAY) YEAR_SELECTOR := RLIST(YEAR) MONTHDAY := ( 1 .. 31 ) MONTH := ( jan | feb | mar | apr | may | jun | jul | aug | sep | oct | no NUMERAL := ( first | second | third | fourth | fifth ) WEEKDAY := ( mon | tue | wed | thr | fri | sat | sun ) WEEKNUM := ( 1 .. 53 ) YEAR := 20[1-9][0-9] YEARDAY := ( 1 .. 366 ) RLIST(X) := LIST(RANGE(X)) LIST(X) := X [ , X ] ... RANGE(X) := X [ - X ]

With this, the following will be possible:
usual "mon-tue" or "daily"
usual full date "jan 7 2017" or "jan 7"
week X 2017 mon (monday on week X 2017)
week X,Y,A-B tue,wed (tuesday and wednesday on weeks X, Y and A to B)
yearday 5 2017 (fifth day of 2017)
monthly first tue,wed (monthly on first tuesday and wednesday)
* ...

With this, the program will be quite complete I believe.

  Hi Renaud,
  
  sounds quite complete – I’ll give the theory a try the next few days – but on a first look
  
  you got a really nice solution in the works now 😊

  It would be quite nice if I could get my Wakup/Shutdown schedule in-sync with my backup software schedule. For example these are my current backup schedules:
  
  Full Backup: Every 1st monday in month, repeating every month (currently not possible with APM)
  Incremental Backup: Tuesday every 2 weeks, starting with 1st tuesday in month, repeating every month (currently not possible with APM)
  
  Currently I am working around these schedules to wakeup the NAS every week on monday and tuesday
  morning (including shutdown on monday and tuesday evening) - but as you can see the NAS is running
  most of the time without doing anything - as the backup schedule is not that tight.
  Monitoring the network traffic is not really possible as the NAS is mounted with iSCSI to a virtual machine
  that is steadily monitoring the device.

Please be patient because I've just started writing the unit tests.
Then will come the actual coding.

HiOliver

I'm sorry I didn't have the time yet to implement the code.
I'm completely exhausted after the work. I hope to be able to continue during my vacations.

  Hi Renaud,
  
  no problem at all – take your time … free-time projects have a greater timeframe than business projects 😉

Hi Oliver,
just to let you know that backend implementation is almost complete. I still need some more testing and updating the GUI.
