Overview

Cronmaster is an open source web interface for managing the cron jobs on a server. Create, edit, pause, resume and run scheduled jobs from a browser using a human readable schedule builder, with live job output and a searchable history of every run, instead of hand editing crontab text over SSH.

Why the cloudimg image

cloudimg delivers Cronmaster hardened and fully patched, served over TLS with a self signed certificate regenerated on first boot. Authentication is on by default and a unique admin password is generated per instance, and the service refuses to start without one. It binds to loopback behind an nginx reverse proxy, and the system cron daemon is enabled so your scheduled jobs actually run. Backed by 24/7 support.

Common uses

  • Manage a server cron jobs from a browser without hand editing crontab over SSH
  • Build schedules with a human readable helper and watch live job output as it runs
  • Review a searchable history of every run to see which jobs succeeded or failed
