new_rschedule {almanac}

Create a new rschedule

Description

new_rschedule() is a developer focused tool that is not required for normal usage of almanac. It is only exported to allow other packages to construct new rschedule objects that work with almanac functions prefixed with ⁠alma_*()⁠, like alma_in().

rschedule_events() is a generic function that rschedule subclasses must provide a method for. rschedule_events() should return a Date vector containing the complete ordered set of events in the event set of that rschedule.

Usage

new_rschedule(..., class)

rschedule_events(x)

Arguments

...

⁠[named fields]⁠

Named data fields.

class

⁠[character]⁠

A required subclass.

x

⁠[rschedule subclass]⁠

An object that subclasses rschedule.

Details

An rschedule is an abstract class that rrule and rset both inherit from. The sole functionality of rschedule classes is to provide a method for rschedule_events().

Value

For new_rschedule(), a new rschedule subclass.

For rschedule_events(), a Date vector of events.

Examples

events <- as.Date("1970-01-01")

static <- new_rschedule(
  events = events,
  class = "static_rschedule"
)

# You have to register an `rschedule_events()` method first!
try(alma_events(static))
