It accepts a cron expression string, a start date, and an optional end date, then returns the next scheduled execution time(s) on demand. The library is designed for developers who want to visualize or pre-compute schedule data independently of a task queue or scheduler, or who need Quartz syntax support without running Java.\n\nThe package depends only on pytz and standard Python libraries, keeping external dependencies minimal. It provides methods to get a single future date or retrieve multiple dates in one call. The library is not a scheduler itself\u2014it is a calculation tool meant to integrate into custom scheduling or visualization systems.","worth_installing":"No. The package is abandoned (last release 2019-11-08, no recent commits), leaving it vulnerable to Python ecosystem changes and unable to address bugs or compatibility issues. While the MIT license is permissive and install friction is low, the lack of maintenance makes it unsuitable for production use unless you have no alternative and can fork or patch it yourself. Consider actively maintained alternatives for Quartz cron parsing."},"id":"cron-schedule-triggers","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/cron-schedule-triggers","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/cron-schedule-triggers.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/cron-schedule-triggers/"},"maintenance":{"status":"abandoned"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2019-11-08","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"permissive","name":"cron-schedule-triggers","python_support":"supports_current","summary":"Cron Schedule Triggers ~ A library for determining Quartz Cron schedule trigger dates."},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":276259,"position":8166,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"0.0.11"}
