Node Task Runner
Node Task Runner is a minimal Dockerized app that runs custom Node.js scripts on a schedule and offers a simple dashboard to monitor them.
How does it work?
Each task is a folder with two files: a task.js script and a config.yaml file with its name and cron schedule. Drop the folder in the mounted tasks directory and the runner picks it up automatically. A task reports success or failure with its exit code (0 means success).
Features
Here are the main features of the runner.
#1. Automatic task discovery
New task folders are discovered automatically from the mounted directory. There is nothing to register.
#2. Cron scheduling and retries
Every task runs on its own cron schedule. Optional retries can re-run a task after a failure, with a delay between attempts.
#3. Simple dashboard
Run any task immediately from the web interface. You can also edit a task's name and schedule, and the changes are written back to its config.yaml file.
#4. Run history and logs
Every run is recorded with its logs so you can quickly see what happened and why a task failed.
#5. Easy to deploy
Run it with Docker Compose using the image published on GitHub Container Registry. Run metadata and logs are stored as files, so there's no database to manage.
