DateTime::Cron::Simple 0.2

DateTime::Cron::Simple is a Perl module that can parse a cron entry and check against current time.

SYNOPSIS

use DateTime::Cron::Simple;

$c = DateTime::Cron::Simple->new($cron);

$boolean = $c->validate_time;

$c->new_cron($cron);

This module is a quick and dirty way to determine if a cron time format is valid for the current date and time.

A cron entry follows the cron format from crontab(5).

The validate_time function uses the current date and time for comparison, but will also accept a valid DateTime object as a parameter.

EXAMPLE

use DateTime::Cron::Simple;

$c = DateTime::Cron::Simple->new('0-59/2 10,12 * * 5');

if($c->validate_time) { ... }

$c->new_cron('* * 1 * 0');

if($c->validate_time) { ... }
