I'm trying to set a Whenever job that should be executed 2 times a day, exactly at 11am and 11pm. Is there any way to do it with only one block? I mean something like this:
every :day, :at => ['11am','11pm'] do
runner "Task"
end

1This is actually possible in the newest version, as written here. – mltsy Mar 11 '14 at 19:28

@mltsy did you intend to include documentation? – La-comadreja Mar 11 '15 at 14:22

Whenever now supports the syntax proposed in the question.
Just pass an array to the :at option.
every :day, at: ["11am", "11pm"] do
runner "Task"
end

If you're concerned about DRYness of your code, then how about this?
['11am','11pm'].each do |at|
every :day, :at => at do
runner "Task"
end
end

2For posterity: this is actually possible as written in the question in the newest version, so this isn't necessary (in case you want to update the answer). – mltsy Mar 11 '14 at 19:29
