For another useful resource, this site is really helpful for decoding what cronjobs are in plain language.
I’d recommend learning/using systemd timers instead (well, if you are on inux and your distro uses systems)
Is there any easy way to get mail of the runs like with cron?
You can use
OnFailurein your.servicefile if you want some thing to happen when that specific service fails, but I don’t know if there’s a blanket way to tell systemd to notify via email when any failure happens (I wouldn’t mind a desktop notification… will investigate)When I checked a long time ago, there wasn’t.
And not only failures, often it’s useful to get mail for all executions.
I guess cron continues to have its place.
