Calendar / dashboard / anything for scheduled backups or jobs
reddit / selfhosted

Hey everyone!

​

As the title says, I'm on the look for... something, that allows me to
keep track of various scheduled jobs (like backups scheduled at XX:YY,
cronjob scheduled at ZZ:WW and so on).

I've already tried a couple of options, like the classic spredsheet, a
calendar plugin on Nextcloud, various calDAV options (the few ones
that had an integrated UI were... delusional to be polite) but not
really satisfied with anything to be honest.

​

I've seen there is a plugin for Grafana which I haven't tried yet and
will be done in the next days (I'll need to resurrect the Grafana
installation I did a while ago).

But if anyone got experience with it, feedback would be appreciated.

​

I'm not really after anything particular (could be docker, cloned from
github, single packages, etc.) just something that is "nice to look
at".

Could also be a dashboard adapted too.

​

The only requirement? That it should be selfhosted (duh) and a webapp
(I don't want to install a client, maybe an Android app it's ok, but
not a PC client or the likes) .

​

Open the gates and let the ideas flows!

​

Thanks everyone!

Cronicle, crontab-ui

Both options are nice, from a quick read Cronicle seems more
interesting, at least for my scope.

​

Thanks for the suggestions!

Take a look at selfhosting [healthchecks.io](https://healthchecks.io)
as another option.

Cool, looks also promising!

Will check for sure, thanks!

Check out [https://n8n.io/](https://n8n.io/)  the best for me so far I
can make dozens of cronjobs with ntfy to send me reminders.

I'm not 100% sure this is exactly what I wanted, but it was already on
my list of "future projects", so maybe it's time to start exploring
this one.

Thanks!
