I want a cron job for NodeJS that runs at 11:30 AM alternating days. I searched but I get solutions only for daily, not any solution for every other day.
ChatGPT suggested
const isAlternateDay = () => {
const today = new Date();
const day = today.getDate();
// For example, consider odd days as alternate days
return day % 2 !== 0;
};
// Schedule the cron job for 11:30 AM every day
cron.schedule('30 11 * * *', () => {
if (isAlternateDay()) {
console.log('Running cron job on an alternate day at 11:30 AM');
// Your task logic here
}
});
But I want to do this using cron
itself; I do not want to add an external condition.
