every(5).minutes.between("04:30", "12:00")?

[Jamian]

I've had a look through and I can't seem to figure out if it's possible to achieve something similar to the title with existing functionality, in a clean way. I'd like to avoid having to have a whole load of repeateded lines for every 5minute mark inbetween the hours I need to run. If not is this something that could be looked at implementing?

I have a requirement to run a task every 5 minutes, all day, every day. There's a scheduled window every day however where this task will fail, so I need to be able to run it every 5 minutes outside of this window.

E.g. if the window is 04:00 - 04:05 I need to be able to do every(5).minutes.between("04:06": "03:59") or something similar.

Cheers

Interested in the same feature.

create the job to start every 5 mins, but inside the job check if the actual time is outside of the window. A simple if.

Hi, what commend would you use to check the time? thanks

@Jamian did you get this to work, could you help with your example, thanks!

@underclass Unfortunately not using schedule like I'd hoped. I'd advise going with the suggestion from @jziolkowski if that works for you - it didn't for us so we just opted to go down a completely different route. Would still very much like this feature though.
