    Anything from simple crontab entry to something like this: https://crazymax.dev/swarm-cronjob/
  • How do you evaluate if a tool is trustworthy?

    So, I found a really nice little tool that solves a problem I have in a really nice way. Specifically, cron jobs on Docker Swarm. This project: https://github.com/crazy-max/swarm-cronjob It uses labels on your services to schedule jobs. Thus it needs access to the docker api, and all the security concerns that go along with it...

    As i said, if it's not exposed to the outside world and doesn't work with untrusted data, that claim is not entirely valid.

    Imagine something like this getting abandoned, or someone running a year old version of it: https://github.com/crazy-max/swarm-cronjob/blob/master/READM...

    Its only job is to run containers on a particular schedule, no more no less. There are very few attack vectors for something like that, considering that it doesn't talk to the outside world, nor processes any user input data.

    Then again, it's not my job to pass judgement on situations like that, merely acknowledge that they exist and therefore the consequences of those suddenly breaking cannot be ignored.

  • Docker Swarm cron job manager

    I also found swarm-cronjob and ofelia both seems promising. BUT , I really like the idea of an interface to watch log files etc.

    Rancher's, and Podman's, efforts on Mac are exciting, but you can also just run the Docker daemon in a VM on Mac and install the free docker CLI using homebrew. This is what I do using Canonical's Multipass to create the VM. I wrote a simple script that makes it a simple `dockerhost create`. https://github.com/leighmcculloch/dockerhost
