Rippler docs
Command line

Overview

Create monitors for your crontab and report each job’s outcome automatically.

The rippler CLI does two things:

  • rippler sync reads your crontab, creates a monitor for every job that does not have one, and rewrites those lines so they report themselves.
  • rippler exec wraps a single command so it reports its start, duration and outcome.

It is one executable with no runtime to install, so it runs on the same machine as your cron jobs.

Set up the CLI

# 1. Install
curl -fsSL https://rippler.io/cli | sh

# 2. Log in with the token from Account → API
rippler login

# 3. See what it would do to your crontab
rippler sync --dry-run

# 4. Do it
rippler sync

Run sync again any time. Jobs it has already set up are left alone.
