Moments granularity

[timothysparg]

Hi,

I really like the idea around the Moments API, but it doesn't quite fit my use case and would like to have a bit of a discussion to see if it should, and if see how best to achieve that.

My current use case is that I have A Spring Boot application that fetches events from several REST endpoints at intervals ranging from 5 minutes to every hour.

So Simplistically for my use case we could introduce and emit the following events

• 5MinshasPassed
• 30MinsHasPassed
• 45MinsHasPassed

And that would be solve my problem ...

But in the context of a framework developer that doesn't really seem like a sound approach 🙃
I wonder if there shouldn't be a more generic approach - something like

• DaysHavePassed
• HoursHavePassed
• MinutesHavePassed

and then each of those can then specify the amount of Days/Hours/Minutes that have passed?

Not sure if that's the correct answer either - but I am interested in starting the discussion
