Cronk allows developers to convert files between the crontab and json formats.

To-do:

  • Add i18n of periodicity via Babel

Release to pypi.org

We provide a Dockerfile that sets up the correct environment to publish a new version of Cronk to PyPI.

*These instructions assume the build is executed on a Cloudtop instance.

First time Docker setup

Remove any previous Docker installation:

sudo apt remove docker-engine

Add Google's Docker distribution repository to `apt:

glinux-add-repo docker-ce-"$(lsb_release -cs)"

Install the Docker runtime:

sudo apt update  && sudo apt install docker-ce

Check that the Docker daemon is active:

systemctl status docker.service

The systemctl output should look something like this:

ltadeut@ltadeut-devbox:~/cronk$ systemctl status docker.service
● docker.service - Docker Application Container Engine
     Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/system/docker.service; enabled; preset: enabled)

A note on package security

PyPI is a repository for distributing packages, not a service for auditing them. While third-party security researchers and our staff do their best to detect and remove malicious packages, PyPI cannot guarantee the quality, security or suitability of any given package.
