trigger

The calendar is checked for new events on input or cronjob. For events in the future within the preview timespan, a separated cronjob is generated. It's fired on the start datetime of the ical event. So, on input or check-cronjob, no output is generated. Only when an event starts.

Configuration

• "Check every": how often the calendar is checked for new events

• "Trigger": possible values:

  • Always (Filter expression is ignored)
  • Match (only events that match the Filter expression are processed)
  • No Match (only events that don't match the Filter expression are processed)

• "Filter property": possible values: - summary - description - attendee - category - start date - end date

  if filterProperty is set to "start date" or "end date", additonally a filter operator is shown:
  filter format for dates is YYYY-MM-DD_hh:mm:sss

  "Filter operator": possible values:

  • between
  • before
  • after

• "Filter": filter property of the events from above is filtered against this regular expression

• "Offset": offset, when the start/end cronjob will be triggered (seconds, minutes, hours)

• "timezone for output": default is UTC, so eventStart and eventEnd will be a UTC string

  eventStart: "2021-07-05T03:50:00.000Z"
  eventEnd: "2021-07-05T04:30:00.000Z"
  

  e.g. set timezone to Europe/Berlin

  eventStart: "2021-07-05T05:50:00.000+02:00"
  eventEnd: "2021-07-05T06:30:00.000+02:00"    
  

• "Name": Displayname

• "Cron": Similar to "Check every", but much more configurable. It's a cron expression, how often the calendar is checked for new upcoming events. If Cron is defined, it wins against "Check every". Empty value to disable.
