To create a cron job in JavaScript that runs every day at 6am Central Europe Time using Node.js, we can use the Node-Cron package.
First, install the Node-Cron package by running the following command in your project directory:
22 chars2 lines
Then, in your JavaScript file, import the Node-Cron package and setup your cron job to run every day at 6am Central Europe Time:
index.tsx234 chars10 lines
In the example above, we set the timezone to Central Europe Time by setting the process.env.TZ
variable to 'Europe/Paris'
. You can replace this with your local timezone or any other timezone that you want to use.
Then, we schedule our cron job to run every day at 6am using the cron expression '0 6 * * *'
. This expression means that the job will run when the second is 0
, the minute is 6
, and any hour of the day (*
), any day of the month (*
), and any day of the week (*
).
Finally, we define the code block that should be executed when the cron job runs. In this example, we simply log a message to the console.
Note: To run the cron job continuously, you need to keep the Node.js process running.
