Creating a script that use a database or array

[khalil]

Scheduled script that runs every minute. Fill schedule table with dates and times.

Code:

schedule = {
  ['1/1'] = { '1:05', '2:10' },
  -- ...
  ['12/31'] = { '1:11', '15:13' },
}

dtbl = os.date('*t')
date = string.format('%d/%d', dtbl.month, dtbl.day)
time = string.format('%d:%02d', dtbl.hour, dtbl.min)

schedtimes = schedule[ date ] or {}
for _, schedtime in ipairs(schedtimes) do
  if schedtime == time then
    -- execute action
  end
end

Hello Admin,
the Array will be defined every time the script Run? if yes how to define it once not run every cycle?
