Reliable cron jobs, defined as code

Describe your schedules in a file in your repository. Postqron runs them on time, retries when it should, and always tells you how it went.

Four things Postqron takes off your list

No cron server to keep alive, no script failing in silence, no doubt about what ran and when.

Every job in one place

Different repositories and environments, a single list.

Defined in your repository

One cron.yaml, read again on every push to the branch.

A log of every run

Duration, outcome and response, as they happen.

Retries and alerts

Backoff on failure, a notice when that is not enough.

Your schedules live in your repository

A cron.yaml file describes jobs, times and targets. On every push Postqron reads it again and realigns everything: review happens in the pull request.

  • Cron expressions with time zones, daylight saving included
  • Interval mode down to the second
  • Separate environments for staging and production
  • Syntax errors reported on the commit

You always know how it went

Every occurrence leaves a trace: when it started, how long it took, what it answered. Failures become a notice, not a discovery.

  • Run history with filters by outcome
  • Average duration and failure rate per job
  • Alerts by email or webhook on Slack and Discord
