for the big project of permanent installation of the museum, I'd need a scheduler.

Indeed, I'll wake on lan all the machine at the morning, and "curtains" them at the evening, automatically.

I'd really like to dev something inside max.

All works fine over UDP etc.

Now, the big part would be that:
- handling day of week
- handling exceptionnal days

Did someone make that?
Any ideas or ways to explore?

inside a javascript will give you the day of the week (as a Number) Check any javascript reference, you can also get the date of course to check against predefined Dates in a coll etc.

function bang(){
outlet(0,new Date().getDay());
}

I'll probably make a little "user friendly" interface to write/read the coll.

thanks, it also means I'm on the good path, and it is important :)

I just put one of these together for my permanent installation. It is a week-based calendar that lets you schedule events by hour-long blocks.

All of the scheduling data is stored in a jit.matrix and saved to disk periodically. Editing is done in a jit.cellblock. It also allows you to copy and paste days or weeks so that building repeating schedules can be done more easily.

When I get home tonight, I'll zip it and post here so that you can give it a look, I hope it will suite your needs.

-1 code on each line (c= closed, h1 & h2 for 2 range of hours)

I can post it at the end of this huge project

everytime interesting to share & discuss, matt!

hello matt,
finished mine
a bit raw text style, but it works.

-12 txt files (month)
-as many line as day number
-1 code on each line (c= closed, h1 & h2 for 2 range of hours)
-1 hours.txt file to define h1 & h2

making of an (enhanced) scheduler ?
