node-red-node-timeswitch ======================== A Node-RED node to provide a simple timeswitch node to schedule daily on/off events. Install ------- Run the following command in your Node-RED user directory - typically `~/.node-red` npm install node-red-node-timeswitch Usage ----- Sets `msg.payload` to *1* during on times, and *0* during off times. Also uses the suncalc module to allow use of dawn and dusk. Dawn and dusk times can be offset both positively (+ve) for minutes after dawn or dusk, and negatively (-ve) for minutes before dawn or dusk.. The output emits a `msg.payload` of *1* or *0* every minute depending on whether the current time is during the selected on time or off time. If you just need the transitions from 0->1 or 1->0 then follow this node with an RBE node. You may also optionally specify a `msg.topic` if required. **Note**: For a more complex version with more built-in options see Pete Scargill's [node-red-contrib-bigtimer](http://flows.nodered.org/node/node-red-contrib-bigtimer) node.
