Node-cron verify it is correct time
is possible using node-cron (https://github.com/node-cron/node-cron), check somehow if current time is actual with some cron. Imagine that I have array of crons, and I run function every minute which checks all items in that array if it is correct time right now for current item (cron) in array. I hope you will understand me :D or if you have better approach.
