Save() runs immediately as well

[mirkods]

Hi there,
I'm having a strange behaviour, this is my code:

this.agenda.create(jobName, data)
    .unique({'data.eventId':eventId})
    .repeatEvery(cronString, {timezone:timezone})
    .save(function(err, job){
        res.send(200)
     })

Every time that a job is saved its define function is called immediately and then it respects its interval.
Why?

Cheers

@rschmukler I think is strictly related with this #192

Hi @mirkods. You just need to call .computeNextRunAt() before saving:

this.agenda.create(jobName, data)
    .repeatEvery(cronString)
    .computeNextRunAt()
    .save(function () {});

Thanks @jakeorr!
I think could be useful to add this to the doc.

to be honest, i think .computeNextRunAt() should be the default case, because if you specify '1 16 * * 2,3,4,5,6', you don't expect it'll run right away.

FYI, 'in 4 minutes' does not trigger right away.
