Cron Job ? #59

Closed kithokit closed 10 years ago

kithokit commented 10 years ago

Hi,

My Rails app want to have some cron job running in a certain period of time.

Would sucker_punch provide this functionality, I know Resque did.

To my knowledge, Resque doesn't do this out of the box. Regardless, it's not built in, but nothing stopping you from using a cron tab-style gem like https://github.com/javan/whenever.

You can defer jobs to a certain time in the future, but without knowing your specific use, not sure if this would fit.
