StartCalendarInterval

public class StartCalendarInterval : Codable

This optional key causes the job to be started every calendar interval as specified.

Missing arguments are considered to be wildcard. The semantics are similar to crontab(5) in how firing dates are specified. Multiple dictionaries may be specified in an array to schedule multiple calendar intervals.

Unlike cron which skips job invocations when the computer is asleep, launchd will start the job the next time the computer wakes up. If multiple intervals transpire before the computer is woken, those events will be coalesced into one event upon wake from sleep.

Note

StartInterval and StartCalendarInterval are not aware of each other. They are evaluated completely independently by the system.
