Cron Jobs

Run scheduled tasks reliably with standard cron syntax.

A Cron Job runs a command on a schedule. Runko handles execution, retries and logs — there's no always-on server to pay for or maintain.

Define a job

yaml

cron:
  - name: nightly-cleanup
    schedule: "0 3 * * *"   # 03:00 UTC daily
    command: node scripts/cleanup.js
    env: node

bash

runko run 'node scripts/cleanup.js'

Schedules use standard cron expressions and run in UTC. Each run is logged and retried on failure.
