Schedule plan

It can be tedious to manually create a document for every shipment. Nevertheless, to be gitops, such things must be explicitly declared. One can use a placement schedule rule to generate those documents.

The following specifies a schedule that spans from 2023-03-20 to 2024-03-11, excluding the week of 2023-12-25. It will plan the placements of region 1 first, region 9 second, etc. Within the placements of region 1, it will plan XL sales first, L sales second, etc.

  name: initial-plan

spec:
  timeframe:
    start: 2023W12
    end: 2024W11
    exclude: 
      - 2023W52
  sequence:
    - priority: 1
      label: region
      order: [1,9,2,3,6,7,8]
    - priority: 2
      label: sales
      order: [XL, L, M, S, XS]

Note that some values can be excluded, which means they are not scheduled.

The IDE provides tools to visualize these schedule plans.
