Timer

[Defelo]

Commands:

• .timer create <timestamp> <message>: create a new timer that will send message at timestamp via direct messages to the user. The number of timers per user is limited (configurable).
• .timer list: list all active timers
• .timer edit timestamp <id>: edit the timestamp of an active timer
• .timer edit message <id>: edit the message of an active timer
• .timer delete <id>: delete an active timer
• .timer snooze <id> <timestamp>: reactivate timer after message has been sent and reset timestamp
• automatically delete inactive timers after a week
• .until <timestamp>: calculate the timedelta until now and timestamp and print it in format x days <hours>:<minutes>:<seconds> omit days if x is 0

Examples for <timestamp>:

• <unixtimestamp>

• yyyy-mm-dd hh:mm:ss

• yyyy-mm-dd

• yy-mm-dd

• dd-mm-yy

• dd-mm-yyyy

• 5 min

• 5 minutes

• 1 hour

• next christmas

• christmas

• 5 months

• 3 years

• 180 seconds

• first week of august
  case does not matter
  maybe there is a library to do this parsing

• wiederkehrende timer (jeden tag um 20 uhr, bis man das ausmacht) (verhindert, dass man einen timer stellt, und das, was drin ist, dann doch vergisst, indem der einen täglich erinnert)

I found an interesting library for this task: https://pypi.org/project/dateparser
