If you have any issues, create a [http://trac-hacks.org/newticket?component=TracCronPlugin&owner=tbressure new ticket]. == Download == Download the zipped source from [download:traccronplugin here]. == Source == You can check out TracCronPlugin from [http://trac-hacks.org/svn/traccronplugin here] using Subversion, or [source:traccronplugin browse the source] with Trac. == Example == My company need to synchronize trac user with an external source of account. The job was made by an ETL but fine tuning of trac user was still done by a our modified version of Trac by clicking on a button on the admin panel that call a well designed API. So instead of manually clik on the button i searched a way to automate it. Unfortunately, i did not find any plugin for this and even if i could use a unix cron task or an windows AT command to plane the task, i thought it would be better done inside Trac process. So if you have any function for entry point of a process (i mean trac related process) and you want to plane it as a job, Trac Cron Plugin is for you. Simply create in a module (.py) a class that implement the ICronTask and put it inside plugins directory. Then you can either trick the trac.ini but comfortably use the dedicated admin panel. == Recent Changes == [[ChangeLog(traccronplugin, 3)]] == Author/Contributors == '''Author:''' [wiki:tbressure] [[BR]] '''Maintainer:''' [wiki:tbressure] [[BR]] '''Contributors:'''
