8
+
9
+ Or with Bundler in your Gemfile.
10
+
11
+ ```ruby
12
+ gem 'whenever', :require => false
13
+ ```
14
+
15
+ ### Getting started
16
+
17
+ ```sh
18
+ $ cd /apps/my-great-project
19
+ $ wheneverize .
20
+ ```
21
+
22
+ This will create an initial `config/schedule.rb` file for you.
23
+
24
+ ### The `whenever` command
25
+
26
+ ```sh
27
+ $ cd /apps/my-great-project
28
+ $ whenever
29
+ ```
30
+
31
+ This will simply show you your `schedule.rb` file converted to cron syntax. It does not read or write your crontab file; you'll need to do this in order for your jobs to execute:
32
+
33
+ ```sh
34
+ $ whenever --update-crontab
35
+ ```
36
+
37
+ You can list installed cron jobs using `crontab -l`.
38
+
39
+ Run `whenever --help` for a complete list of options for selecting the schedule to use, setting variables in the schedule, selecting a user as which to install the crontab, etc.
40
+
41
+ ### Example schedule.rb file
42
+
43
+ ```ruby
44
+ every 3.hours do
45
+ runner "MyModel.some_process"
46
+ rake "my:rake:task"
47
+ command "/usr/bin/my_great_command"
48
+ end
49
+
50
+ every 1.day, :at => '4:30 am' do
51
+ runner "MyModel.task_to_run_at_four_thirty_in_the_morning"
52
+ end
53
+
54
+ every :hour do # Many shortcuts available: :hour, :day, :month, :year, :reboot
55
+ runner "SomeModel.ladeeda"
56
+ end
57
+
58
+ every :sunday, :at => '12pm' do # Use any day of the week or :weekend, :weekday
59
+ runner "Task.do_something_great"
60
+ end
61
+
62
+ every '0 0 27-31 * *' do
63
+ command "echo 'you can use raw cron syntax too'"
64
+ end
65
+
66
+ # run this task only on servers with the :app role in Capistrano
67
+ # see Capistrano roles section below
68
+ every :day, :at => '12:20am', :roles => [:app] do
69
+ rake "app_server:task"
70
+ end
71
+ ```
72
+
73
+ ### Define your own job types
74
+
75
+ Whenever ships with three pre-defined job types: command, runner, and rake. You can define your own with `job_type`.
76
+
77
+ For example:
78
+
79
+ ```ruby
80
+ job_type :awesome, '/usr/local/bin/awesome :task :fun_level'
81
+
82
+ every 2.hours do
83
+ awesome "party", :fun_level => "extreme"
84
+ end
85
+ ```
86
+
87
+ Would run `/usr/local/bin/awesome party extreme` every two hours. `:task` is always replaced with the first argument, and any additional `:whatevers` are replaced with the options passed in or by variables that have been defined with `set`.
88
+
89
+ The default job types that ship with Whenever are defined like so:
90
+
91
+ ```ruby
92
+ job_type :command, ":task :output"
93
+ job_type :rake, "cd :path && :environment_variable=:environment bundle exec rake :task --silent :output"
94
+ job_type :runner, "cd :path && bin/rails runner -e :environment ':task' :output"
95
+ job_type :script, "cd :path && :environment_variable=:environment bundle exec script/:task :output"
96
+ ```
97
+
98
+ Pre-Rails 3 apps and apps that don't use Bundler will redefine the `rake` and `runner` jobs respectively to function correctly.
99
+
100
+ If a `:path` is not set it will default to the directory in which `whenever` was executed. `:environment_variable` will default to 'RAILS_ENV'. `:environment` will default to 'production'. `:output` will be replaced with your output redirection settings which you can read more about here: <http://github.com/javan/whenever/wiki/Output-redirection-aka-logging-your-cron-jobs>
101
+
102
+ All jobs are by default run with `bash -l -c 'command...'`. Among other things, this allows your cron jobs to play nice with RVM by loading the entire environment instead of cron's somewhat limited environment. Read more: <http://blog.scoutapp.com/articles/2010/09/07/rvm-and-cron-in-production>
103
+
104
+ You can change this by setting your own `:job_template`.
105
+
106
+ ```ruby
107
+ set :job_template, "bash -l -c ':job'"
108
+ ```
109
+
110
+ Or set the job_template to nil to have your jobs execute normally.
111
+
112
+ ```ruby
113
+ set :job_template, nil
114
+ ```
115
+
116
+ ### Capistrano integration
117
+
118
+ Use the built-in Capistrano recipe for easy crontab updates with deploys. For Capistrano V3, see the next section.
119
+
120
+ In your "config/deploy.rb" file:
121
+
122
+ ```ruby
123
+ require "whenever/capistrano"
124
+ ```
125
+
126
+ Take a look at the recipe for options you can set. <https://github.com/javan/whenever/blob/master/lib/whenever/capistrano/v2/recipes.rb>
127
+ For example, if you're using bundler do this:
128
+
129
+ ```ruby
130
+ set :whenever_command, "bundle exec whenever"
131
+ require "whenever/capistrano"
132
+ ```
133
+
134
+ If you are using different environments (such as staging, production), then you may want to do this:
135
+
136
+ ```ruby
137
+ set :whenever_environment, defer { stage }
138
+ require "whenever/capistrano"
139
+ ```
140
+
141
+ The capistrano variable `:stage` should be the one holding your environment name. This will make the correct `:environment` available in your `schedule.rb`.
142
+
143
+ If both your environments are on the same server you'll want to namespace them or they'll overwrite each other when you deploy:
144
+
145
+ ```ruby
146
+ set :whenever_environment, defer { stage }
147
+ set :whenever_identifier, defer { "#{application}_#{stage}" }
148
+ require "whenever/capistrano"
149
+ ```
150
+
151
+ ### Capistrano V3 Integration
152
+
153
+ In your "Capfile" file:
154
+
155
+ ```ruby
156
+ require "whenever/capistrano"
157
+ ```
158
+
159
+ Take a look at the [load:defaults task](https://github.com/javan/whenever/blob/master/lib/whenever/capistrano/v3/tasks/whenever.rake) (bottom of file) for options you can set. For example, to namespace the crontab entries by application and stage do this in your "config/deploy.rb" file:
160
+
161
+ ```ruby
162
+ set :whenever_identifier, ->{ "#{fetch(:application)}_#{fetch(:stage)}" }
163
+ ```
164
+
165
+ The Capistrano integration by default expects the `:application` variable to be set in order to scope jobs in the crontab.
166
+
167
+ ### Capistrano roles
168
+
169
+ The first thing to know about the new roles support is that it is entirely
170
+ optional and backwards-compatible. If you don't need different jobs running on
171
+ different servers in your capistrano deployment, then you can safely stop reading
172
+ now and everything should just work the same way it always has.
173
+
174
+ When you define a job in your schedule.rb file, by default it will be deployed to
175
+ all servers in the whenever_roles list (which defaults to [:db]).
176
+
177
+ However, if you want to restrict certain jobs to only run on subset of servers,
178
+ you can add a :roles => [...] argument to their definitions. **Make sure to add
179
+ that role to the whenever_roles list in your deploy.rb.**
180
+
181
+ When you run `cap deploy`, jobs with a :roles list specified will only be added to
182
+ the crontabs on servers with one or more of the roles in that list.
183
+
184
+ Jobs with no :roles argument will be deployed to all servers in the whenever_roles
185
+ list. This is to maintain backward compatibility with previous releases of whenever.
186
+
187
+ So, for example, with the default whenever_roles of [:db], a job like this would be
188
+ deployed to all servers with the :db role:
189
+
190
+ ```ruby
191
+ every :day, :at => '12:20am' do
192
+ rake 'foo:bar'
193
+ end
194
+ ```
195
+
196
+ If we set whenever_roles to [:db, :app] in deploy.rb, and have the following
197
+ jobs in schedule.rb:
198
+
199
+ ```ruby
200
+ every :day, :at => '1:37pm', :roles => [:app] do
201
+ rake 'app:task' # will only be added to crontabs of :app servers
202
+ end
203
+
204
+ every :hour, :roles => [:db] do
205
+ rake 'db:task' # will only be added to crontabs of :db servers
206
+ end
207
+
208
+ every :day, :at => '12:02am' do
209
+ command "run_this_everywhere" # will be deployed to :db and :app servers
210
+ end
211
+ ```
212
+
213
+ Here are the basic rules:
214
+
215
+ 1. If a server's role isn't listed in whenever_roles, it will *never* have jobs
216
+ added to its crontab.
217
+ 1. If a server's role is listed in the whenever_roles, then it will have all
218
+ jobs added to its crontab that either list that role in their :roles arg or
219
+ that don't have a :roles arg.
220
+ 1. If a job has a :roles arg but that role isn't in the whenever_roles list,
221
+ that job *will not* be deployed to any server.
222
+
223
+ ### RVM Integration
224
+
225
+ If your production environment uses RVM (Ruby Version Manager) you will run into a gotcha that causes your cron jobs to hang. This is not directly related to Whenever, and can be tricky to debug. Your .rvmrc files must be trusted or else the cron jobs will hang waiting for the file to be trusted. A solution is to disable the prompt by adding this line to your user rvm file in `~/.rvmrc`
226
+
227
+ `rvm_trust_rvmrcs_flag=1`
228
+
229
+ This tells rvm to trust all rvmrc files.
230
+
231
+ ### Heroku?
232
+
233
+ No. Heroku does not support cron, instead providing [Heroku Scheduler](https://devcenter.heroku.com/articles/scheduler). If you deploy to Heroku, you should use that rather than Whenever.
234
+
235
+ ### Testing
236
+
237
+ [whenever-test](https://github.com/heartbits/whenever-test) is an extension to Whenever for testing a Whenever schedule.
