Feature Request: Schedule based on day of the week or month

[Cyb3r-Monk]

It would be nice have a scheduling mechanism like:

• Every Friday
• Every 20th day of the month/week

Since the machine or the ghosts.exe can be restarted, it's not feasible to set a delay as several days.

I've been looking at quartz.net as a scheduler. It allows for all types of schedules, but cron-style markup would likely work well for this.

I have a test project running, but this change is relatively large and will take some time to resolve. It may be the impetus to start planning the version 7.x launch party, as it will likely change timeline configuration significantly. 🥳

Can we also use jitter functionality with cron like scheduling? For example: Create a word doc every 2 days at 13:30, but do it between 13:30-13:40, set a random sleep between 0-10minutes.

Cron scheduling sits a layer above where jitter occurs, so whether we set up a job using traditional scheduling or new cron schedules, jitter remains the same - so if you were going to jitter before, and wanted that to persist with some new cron schedule - you're good to go.

Awesome! Looking forward to the release 🥳

Is this included in the 7.0.35.0 or still in progress?

[sei-dupdyke]

It is out there. I would call it "early alpha" 😁

[sei-dupdyke]

This should be fully functioning. Closing this. Any issues would be a new issue I think.

[Cyb3r-Monk]

Awesome! Thanks a lot!
