Define Rotating or Weekly Work Schedules

schedule() defines work schedules based off of a given cycle. If this cycle is named, it is assumed that the names are days of the week, and that the schedule repeats weekly. If it is unnamed, the cycle begins at the anchor date. Defining rotating weekly schedules (i.e. T/R one week, M/W/F the next) is not currently supported using weekday names; these schedules may be defined as a rotating schedule anchored to the beginning of a week.

schedule(
  cycle = c(Sun = FALSE, Mon = TRUE, Tue = TRUE, Wed = TRUE, Thu = TRUE, Fri = TRUE,
    Sat = FALSE),
  start = Sys.Date(),
  end = Sys.Date() + 29L,
  anchor = start
)

schedule_by_cycle(
  cycle = c(FALSE, TRUE, TRUE, TRUE, TRUE, TRUE, FALSE),
  start = Sys.Date(),
  end = Sys.Date() + 29L,
  anchor = start
)

schedule_by_day(
  cycle = c(Sun = FALSE, Mon = TRUE, Tue = TRUE, Wed = TRUE, Thu = TRUE, Fri = TRUE,
    Sat = FALSE),
  start = Sys.Date(),
  end = Sys.Date() + 29L
)

Arguments

cycle	A logical vector defining one scheduling cycle. If named, names are passed to `sched_parse_weekday()` for standardization of weekday names.
start	The start date of the returned schedule; either a string in "YYYY-MM-DD" format or a `Date` object
end	The end date of the returned schedule; either a string in "YYYY-MM-DD" format or a `Date` object
anchor	The date from which to start ("anchor") schedule calculations. This can be any valid date; no particular relationship to `start` or `end` is needed. It must be either a string in "YYYY-MM-DD" format or a `Date` object.

Value

A tibble with columns date (a Date column containing dates between start and end, inclusive), weekday (a character column containing full weekday names), and scheduled (a logical column defining whether a day is schedule ("on") or not ("off"))

Details

schedule_by_cycle() and schedule_by_day() are the workhorses underlying as_schedule(). They handle the general cyclic and weekly use cases described above.
