Previous Occurrence

[azuby]

Is there a way to get the previous occurrence, similar to next_occurrence? If not, any suggestions on accomplishing this?

Here's a possible workaround:

schedule.occurrences_between(now, t1)[-2]

It's a good idea though. I think we can wrap up a helper method for this.

See related discussion on #155 and #117.

That seems like it would generate a large amount of models. We have daily recurrence rules for years...

You mean object allocations? I agree, building up an array from now until your target time is not ideal. We should make it smarter by looking at the rules & intervals to narrow the start of the range.
