Whenever is a Ruby gem that provides a clear, expressive syntax for defining scheduled tasks (cron jobs) inside Ruby code. Instead of writing cron syntax manually, you write Ruby blocks expressing what tasks run and when, and Whenever generates the appropriate crontab entries. It aims to make scheduling tasks easier and more maintainable.
Features
- Ruby DSL for defining schedule tasks (e.g. every, hourly, daily, etc) instead of raw cron syntax
- Ability to define jobs with parameters, environment, command to run, etc via Ruby code
- Automatically writes crontab entries from schedule file
- Supports multiple task types (runner tasks, rake tasks, custom commands)
- Offers ability to set environment variables for tasks and customizing PATH etc
- Supports time zones, frequency options, and invoking tasks at specific times or intervals
