I am trying to add a simple cron job to run in my Docker container. I want it to be added during setup so it will automatically run when ./launcher rebuild app completes. The cron job works when I manually add it to the /etc/cron.d/anacron file with vim but if I edit it without entering and saving …

You should write a proper plugin as suggested, but here’s how to do what you asked. You can add something like this in the run section near the end of app.yml. - exec: cp /shared/rr/cron.d.rr /etc/cron.d/rr You want to put both your script and this file in some directory that’s mapped under sha…

Thanks for getting back to me! Maybe this will make more sense: I am running a privately hosted discourse repo with some custom files on it. I have a file in Discourse’s script directory called email_me.py When run, this file sends me an email saying “Hello World!” I want to create a cron job in t…

You should really follow @eviltrout advice and do this properly in a plugin using our Sidekiq scheduled jobs. But if you want to mess with those unsupported changes to cron, you will probably need to restart the service after adding a job with sv restart cron.

Also to be more clear, I am curious what your end goal is, not the steps you are using to achieve it. If the goal is to have an email sent to you once a minute, you can do that in a sidekiq job in a plugin and it’s significantly simpler.

My end goal is to run a database query looking for specific user activity and send an email with a table containing the results. This email will act as a pre-payment confirmation as the users who did this specific activity will be paid later in the day (via PayPal) through another script run by cron…

Yes that worked perfectly. I had to create the rr folder and cron.d.rr files. I put my cron job in the cron.d.rr file and the cp worked. Thank you! Now to look into writing a proper plugin…
