Hi everyone, I've been pulling my hair out on this one....maybe you can help me with some insights... For my project I am looking into using a scheduler/timer for creating daily/weekly events. But I do not want to wait until an event fires...my project needs to be more predictive/intelligent. So…

I think that node-red-contrib-schedex can do what you want. It displays its next ON and OFF times in the node status, where it can be caught by a status node, and it can be interrogated using msg.payload = 'info', reporting upcoming events as msg.payload.on and msg.payload.off.

Good point, but see this discussion. I wasn't suggesting "all things to all people," just that I haven't found a timer/scheduler with all the features I need.

Is there a scheduler/timer that will tell "now" what event will be "next"?
