Cancel node-schedule event after it has been set

Question

I am planning on using node-schedule to set up push notifications for appointment reminders as follows:

var schedule = require(\'node-schedule\');
var date =         


        

Answer 1

var randf = require('randomstring');    
    var jobId = randf.generate(10); //randomsrting
    var at = new Date();
    var time = at.setSeconds(at.getSeconds() + Number(5))  //after 5 second     
    schedule.scheduleJob(jobId, new Date(time),function(){
         schedule.cancelJob(jobId);
         console.log('hi--viral');
     });
