Scheduler / node-red-contrib-ui-time-scheduler alternatives for DB2.0

Dashboard
1

Hihi,
I use node-red-contrib-ui-time-scheduler node-red-contrib-ui-time-scheduler in many flows and while migration from DB1 to DB2.0 I found no port for it or any alternative. - Does anybody know if there is one ? - Thx!

I had not found anything and moved over using ICAL node

Now I can schedule all my events (and more) in my outlook calendar

I'm using it to

  • switch ON/OFF lights or switches
  • send messages via TTS to speakers in the house
  • executes specific tasks/actions (e.g. start vacuum cleaner, run pool pump, etc)

You can use all calendar functions

  • repeat as often you want
  • schedule for a period of time
  • define exact start - stop times
  • see your calendar remotely and can change, add or delete individual or series events

:rofl: I love the image of the vacuum cleaner starting itself up as a reminder to the kids to vacuum their rooms. Perhaps coupled to a dust sensor that won't let it turn off until the room is clean enough!

@xx_Nexus_xx Thanx for your creative idea. As I get it, its not possible to keep then all and simple within node red gui. - That´s more what I want :wink:
