This guide provides examples on how to use cronjob to automate tasks.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Get Started
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- Begin by opening a terminal and running the following command:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```bash
|
||||||
|
crontab -e
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
This command will open the crontab file in the nano text editor.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- Next, you need to define the cronjob. Add the following lines to the file:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```bash
|
||||||
|
* * * * * <command>
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- Finally, you can save the file by pressing `Ctrl + X` and then `Y`.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Syntax
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```bash
|
||||||
|
* <- minute (0-59)
|
||||||
|
* <- hour (0-23)
|
||||||
|
* <- day of month (1-31)
|
||||||
|
* <- month (1-12)
|
||||||
|
* <- day of week (0-6) (Sunday=0)
|
||||||
|
<command>
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
