Update job delay

[wallslide]

If I create a job with a two-hour delay, and an hour later wish to add an extra hour of delay, what is the best way to accomplish that?

job.pause()
job.delay(<new delay>)
job.save()
job.resume()

Of course the above answer doesn't really answer the details of how to add an "extra hour" specifically... :-)

job.doc.after contains a Date representing the time after which the job can run (calculated from the job.delay() / job.after() at the time the job was created). If you'd like to add an additional hour to the original delay, you can do so as:

job.pause()
job.after(new Date(job.doc.after.setHours(job.doc.after.getHours()+1)))
job.save()
job.resume()
