Quickstart
On the server side everything is also pretty straightforward:
import datetime as dt
import crontools as ct
tz = dt.timezone.utc
now = dt.datetime.fromisoformat('2021-02-01 00:00:00+00:00')
ct = ct.Crontab.parse(
'30 30 12-16/2 1,2 JAN SAT,SUN *',
seconds_ext=True,
years_ext=True,
tz=tz,
)
cron_iter = ct.iter(start_from=now)
for n, fire_datetime in zip(range(1, 31), cron_iter):
print("{n:2}: {dt}".format(n=n, dt=fire_datetime))
output:
