Automation Utility
Cron Job Schedule Builder
Visual tool to generate "Crontab" expressions. Define your timing and your script path to get a ready-to-use command.
Quick Timing:
Tip: Always use absolute paths (starting with /) to ensure the server finds your script.
Full Crontab Entry:
* * * * * /path/to/command
Why specify a path?
When a Cron Job runs, it doesn't have the same "environment" as your terminal. It might not know where python or your script is located.
By providing the Full Absolute Path, you guarantee that the task will execute successfully every time.
Use Case: Django/Python
To run a management command on your VPS:
0 3 * * * /usr/bin/python3 /var/www/helpwalker/manage.py clearsessions
This example runs at 3:00 AM every day.
