Various services from cron exist, e.g.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
> sudo apt -y install cronie
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
start the cronie with
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
> sudo systemctl start cronie
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
start a cron with
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
> cron -e
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
You can run a script with:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*/10 * * * * /home/pi/script.sh
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
... which would run every 10 minutes.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
To run something as root, do:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
> sudo crontab -e
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
For example, you can update the database, meaning searches with 'locate' command will be faster.
