# cron module ## Introduction The cron module is a scalebox public module similar to the cron function under UNIX, which periodically sends messages to each sub-module to start related timing operations. ## Usage Define timing operations for multiple modules through the file cron.txt. In the cron.txt file, lines beginning with '#' are comment lines. Each line defines the timing operation for a module, including timing operation interval definition and module name, separated by commas. A sample cron.txt file is as follows: ``` # comments for cron.txt @every 1m,mod0 @every 1m30s,mod1 ``` The definition part of the timing operation interval refers to: [cron-doc](https://pkg.go.dev/github.com/robfig/cron)
