oscscheduler v0.0.4

oscscheduler works by reading a schedule file written in json. This file specifies a start time and end time for the show which will be run each day.

The show itself is a series of osc actions that will be run in a loop until then end time.

'Usage'

var ShowScheduler = require("./lib/showScheduler");

//Load Show File
var show = require("./show.json");  // The Show File to Load - More details below


//set up show
var thisSchedule = new ShowScheduler(show);



thisSchedule.on("beforeStart", function(){
 	//If there are things that need be done before the show starts
	
})



thisSchedule.on("afterEnd", function(){
	

})

var currentTime = new Date();
currentTime.setHours(19, 59, 55, 0)
//Schedule the show to start - Optionally pass the current time for testing purposes

//This line schedules the show to start
thisSchedule.activate(currentTime);
