Cronjobs

A minimal Docker image based on Alpine Linux with curl for cronjobs

Usage

Create a docker-compose.yml with:

version: '3'

services:
    cronjobs:
      restart: unless-stopped
      image: razvanstoica/cronjobs:3
      container_name: <your container name goes here>
      volumes:
        - ./crontabs/root:/etc/crontabs/root

Put your cronjobs in ./crontabs/root file.

Run it with docker-compose up command.

Logs

Set the output to /dev/stdout in order to view the cron result.

Example: * * * * * curl -s4 ifconfig.co > /dev/stdout.

Read all the logs with docker logs <your container name goes here>.

In order to persist the logs you can add a new volume like this:

version: '3'

services:
    cronjobs:
      restart: unless-stopped
      image: razvanstoica/cronjobs:3
      container_name: <your container name goes here>
      volumes:
        - ./crontabs/root:/etc/crontabs/root
        - ./log:/var/log/

Set the output to /var/log/<your log file name goes here> in order to view the cron result.

Example: * * * * * curl -s4 ifconfig.co > /var/log/<your log file name goes here>
