@app.task(daily.between("08:00", "20:00") & every("10 minutes"))

Describe the bug

Expected behavior

Desktop (please complete the following information):

• OS: Ubuntu 20
• Python 3.8

This works:

@app.task(
    (
        (
            time_of_week.on("Mon")
            | time_of_week.on("Tue")
            | time_of_week.on("Wed")
            | time_of_week.on("Thu")
            | time_of_week.on("Fri")
        )
        & time_of_day.between("08:00", "20:00")
    )
    & every("1 hours")
)

is there an easier way to write: Run this task every x on weekdays between 08:00 and 20:00 ?

@faulander You can try doing it this way. Write a custom app condition, which only schedules a function to run on Weekdays. Then use the condition while scheduling the task.

from rocketry import Rocketry
from rocketry.conds import time_of_day, every
from datetime import datetime

app = Rocketry()

WEEKDAYS = ["Monday", "Tuesday", "Wednesday", "Thursday", "Friday"]


@app.cond()
def is_week_day():
    day = datetime.now().strftime("%A")
    if day in WEEKDAYS:
        return True
    return False


@app.task(is_week_day & time_of_day.between("8:00", "20:00") & every("1 hours"))
def do_things():
    ...


if __name__ == "__main__":  
    app.run()

@Miksus I think we can close this issue.
