How do I restrict a method so that it will only run on certain days if called?


I want to restrict a method to only be executable on weekdays. Is there a spring annotation that would allow for this? Im trying to avoid writing a method that just checks the day of the week and exits.


Solution

  • I don't think there's any comment to check the day of the week in the spring.

    You may need to use the following methods:

    public void checkDate() {
        
        LocalDate localDate = LocalDate.now();
        
        DayOfWeek dayOfWeek = localDate.getDayOfWeek();
        
        if(dayOfWeek == DayOfWeek.SATURDAY || dayOfWeek == DayOfWeek.SUNDAY) {
            // ...do something
        }
        
    }
