cronmatch

cronmatch checks if a date/time is matched by a cron expression.

Usage

The match method accepts two parameters:

• a cron expression
• a date (or something that can be converted to a date)

const cronmatch = require('cronmatch')
 
// If the minute of the current time is divisible by 5, do something
if (cronmatch.match('*/5 * * * *', Date.now())) {
  ...
}
 
// Execute the following code only on a wednesday or on the 29 of February
if (cronmatch.match(['* * * * * 3 *','* * * 29 2 * *'], Date.now())) {
  ...
}
