jobmanager 1.0.1
This package makes managing cron jobs on unix systems a breeze! It is composed of a single program, +jobmanager+, which is intended to be invoked by cron, or a cron-like application. +jobmanager+, in turn, invokes the specified cron job, in addition to providing the following added value: * Logs the output of the cron jobs. * Rotates the cron job logs. * Manages a central log which records all cron events (when each job starts, finishes, the job's success, etc). * Emails the user the results of the cron job on a configurable condition (on failure only, on success only, etc.) via sendmail or smtp. * Times out a cron job that runs past the configurable timeout. * Easily scales to handle multiple users' cron jobs. * Both the default behavior and the per-cron job behavior are highly configurable.
