Cron Jobs

Cron jobs are a way to schedule jobs to run at specific times.

You can define cron jobs in your app manifest file, which is located in the app's directory.

// ~/smallweb/hello/smallweb.json
{
  "crons": [
    {
      "schedule": "0 0 * * *",
      "args": ["pomdtr"]
    }
  ]
}

This cron job will trigger the cli entrypoint of the hello app every day at midnight, with the argument pomdtr.

// ~/smallweb/hello/main.ts
export default {
  run: async (args: string[]) => {
    console.log(`Hello ${args[0]}`);
  },
};

You can trigger it manually by just using the smallweb run hello pomdtr command.
