Hi all,
A couple of things I'm working on at the moment would like to meet on a
monthly basis.
>From irc-meetings: " Options for the `frequency` are `weekly`,
`biweekly-even`, and `biweekly-odd` at the moment.", and in
yaml2ical/recurrence.py [1] it's pretty clear that there's no support
for Monthly.
So ... first question: is there some enormous trap that means adding
support to the code for monthly meetings is best avoided/really hard?
According to ICAL examples[2], it looks like monthly is basically done
as based on a day, and a week-of-month position:
eg "1st Friday of the Month"
DTSTART;TZID=US-Eastern:19970905T090000
RRULE:FREQ=MONTHLY;BYDAY=1FR
eg "Second to last Monday of the Month":
DTSTART;TZID=US-Eastern:19970922T090000
RRULE:FREQ=MONTHLY;BYDAY=-2MO
So, second question, if one was to implement this, what schedule entry
format would be the best:
A)
schedule:
- time: '1400'
day: 1st-Friday
irc: openstack-meeting
frequency: monthly
B)
schedule:
- time: '1400'
day: Friday
irc: openstack-meeting
frequency: monthly
month-week: 1
C) other?
Thanks for your input!
Regards,
Tom
