Find next run date for automated reports

Description

Find the next date that an automated report is supposed to be run. Likely, this function will only be relevant for shiny apps when this date is to be printed

Usage

findNextRunDate(
  runDayOfYear,
  baseDayNum = as.POSIXlt(Sys.Date())$yday + 1,
  startDate,
  terminateDate,
  interval = NULL,
  returnFormat = "%A %e. %B %Y"
)

Arguments

runDayOfYear	Numeric vector providing year-day numbers
baseDayNum	Numeric defining base year-day. Default is today
startDate	Character string of format "YYYY-MM-DD" defining the date of the very first run. If set to NULL (default) or a none future date (compared to the date represented by baseDayNum for the current year) it will be disregarded.
terminateDate	Date-class date after which report is no longer run. Default value set to NULL in which case the function will provide an expiry date adding 3 years to the current date if in a PRODUCTION context and 1 month if not
interval	String defining a time interval as defined in seq.POSIXt. Default value is an empty string
returnFormat	String providing return format as described in strptime in the current locale. Defaults to "%A %d. %B %Y" that will provide something like 'Mandag 20. januar 2019' in a Norwegian locale

Value

String date for printing

Examples

# Will return Jan 30 in the current year and locale with default formatting
findNextRunDate(runDayOfYear = c(10, 20, 30),
 baseDayNum = 20, startDate = 1, terminateDate = 50)
