Support standard Cron expression
EasyCron fully supports standard Cron expresssion that used in popular Cron implementations (Cronie, Vixie cron and Quartz java scheduler, etc.).
Three ways to specify execution time
EasyCron allows user to specify the execution time of cron job in three ways: by interval, by cron expression, manually choose. See the screenshot.
Email Notification
You can set to receive Email notice from EasyCron or not. You can also choose the Email sending condition, e.g. at every time the cron job run or on failure.
Cron Job Execution Logs
You scripts might generate output during periodical executions. The feature of cron job execution logging allows saving these outputs for later check.
Run Time Prediction
Once you add a cron job, you may see a list of dates and times of when will it be executed in the nearest future. This is call run time prediction. How it work?
Separate Failure Logs
If cron job execution failed, separate failure logs can be kept (won’t get overrided by newer logs of successful execution), thus you can check the failure logs conveniently.
Customize HTTP Method
You may choose your HTTP method from GET, POST, HEAD, PUT, PATCH, DELETE, CONNECT, OPTIONS and TRACE. With POST, PUT and PATCH, you can send body data along with the HTTP requests.
Customize HTTP Headers
Customized HTTP headers can also be sent with your cron job HTTP requests. The HTTP header customization can be used to do HTTP basic authentication, API auth or send other instructions to the server, etc…
Powerful API
If you have system/application that needs to configure cron jobs programmerly, Our API can perfectly meet your needs. Check out more at our API document.
Output Regexp Matching
After your cron job is executed, and the result is returned from your cron job script, you can choose to match the output using regular expression, and then decide if the execution is successful or not.
Webhook
Besides email notification, EasyCron also provides webhook as a notification method. A webhook URL and other parmameters could be set for each cron job. So that notifying your Slack and other applications is easy.
Configure Timeout
You could arbitrarily configure a maximum execution time (timeout) for your cron job. This is useful for you to detect any abnormal long cron job execution and get notified if needed.
