Scheduling

Users can schedule jobs with the every key when defining jobs. There are two valid syntaxes: cron-like format and human-readable.

Scheduling a job with the cron-like format​

myjob:
    script: backup.sh
    every: "0 1 * * *"

It runs myjob every day at 1 AM.

Scheduling a job with the human-readable format​

myjob:
    script: backup.sh
    every: 6h

It runs myjob every 6 hours. The first execution will happen in the following 6 hours. Possible other modifiers are s (seconds), m (minutes) and d (days).
