#9085 new defect

opening_hours, "off" and OpeningHoursEdit

Reported by: A_Pirard Owned by: boman
Priority: normal Milestone:
Component: Plugin openinghourseditor Version: tested
Keywords: Cc: A_Pirard

Description

I have (had?) to code opening_hours for a street parking closed on Fridays 14:00 till 22:00.
I have been unable to do that with OpeningHoursEdit, neither intuitively nor after reading its doc.
After setting 24/7, which makes sense, it seemed not allowing to add an exception.
I read the doc for opening_hours, it looked like I had to use "off" but it's not documented (just shows in examples), especially: what must be before the "off" range to mean "all the time"?
I tried to make it "24/7 Fr 14:00-22:00 off" or "Fr 14:00-22:00 off" and OpeningHoursEdit reports an error on "24/7" and 22:0"0" respectively.
I bet for "Fr 14:00-22:00" but neither the OpeningHoursEdit diagram nor the nonexistent "off" documentation would tell me if that's correct.

what about explaining the times explictly like "Mo-Th 00:00-24:00; Fr 00:00-14:00".

But yes, it would be nice if you draw such hours in the timetable and the plugin would automatically optimize it to "24/7; Fr 14:00-22:00 off" if that is valid.
I'd say the plugin could add "off" clauses where it made sense, no need to allow the user to input them manually.

That's strange. On the tagging@osm mailing list

  • someone told me that "off" is optional; of course not
  • someone told me to use 24/7
  • then someone told me that that was wrong, to use nothing
  • then I felt that a syntax diagram was needed and I made and proposed one
  • then someone told be that there was a syntax diagram already
  • there was absolutely no link to it in opening-hours=* and I added one
  • then someone pointed out that there exist "open" and "closed"
  • "Mo-Th 00:00-24:00; Fr 00:00-14:00" is certainly not the simplest to understand, the proof being that it is wrong, it should be "Mo-Th 00:00-24:00; Fr 00:00-14:00; Fr 22:00-24:00; Sa-Su 00:00-24:00 "
  • your 24/7; Fr 14:00-22:00 off is wrong too, it should be Fr 14:00-22:00 off or open; Fr 14:00-22:00 off

OpeningHoursEdit has a subtracting mode, but not obvious to notice and I'm not sure it uses off indeed, even in subtracting mode.

That's Openstreetmap: fuzzy and almost as many ways to tag as subscribers

Simple 00:00-24:00; Fr 00:00-14:00 would be enough

EDT: forgot 2 hours: 00:00-24:00; Fr 00:00-14:00,22:00-24:00

Yeah, so if we have drawn all the wished times in the timetable, the plugin should choose some valid representation (even if not optimal). I am sure if you manually did the intervals the resulting representation would be valid (just not using "off" so not the shortest).

My point being that OpeningHoursEdit plugin can represent what the original poster wanted, just not with the "off" keyword. But there are other valid ways that the plugin supports.
