Get currently running events

[sumbbl145]

Is there an ability to get currently running events, perhaps with IcalExpander.now()?

things now() would catch for all events (including recurring):

• events running all day for that day
• events running at that particular time (startDate <= now() && endDate >= now())

Shouldn't be too hard to implement! PR welcome :)

Wouldn't this be solved by passing the same date for start/end times?

Example:

const events = icalExpander.between(
   new Date(),
   new Date()
);

Existing code seems to cover the use-case (as also depicted in the diagram in the README)

// After and before are just the params passed in to between(before, after)
    function isEventWithinRange(startTime, endTime) {
      return (!after || endTime >= after.getTime()) &&
      (!before || startTime <= before.getTime());
    }

Could be! Someone 🙈 just needs to write some tests to verify all scenarios (time after, time before, time within event, full day)

Here is an another idea, that would also cover my use-case of finding the events at the specific date and time:

at(date) {
  return this.between(date, date);
}

now() {
  return this.at(new Date());
}

Sure. PR welcome!
