Information for package systemd-generator-cron2timer:
-----------------------------------------------------
Repository : openSUSE-Tumbleweed-Oss
Name : systemd-generator-cron2timer
Version : 0-1.2
Arch : noarch
Vendor : openSUSE
Installed Size : 742 B
Installed : No
Status : not installed
Source package : systemd-generator-cron2timer-0-1.2.src
Summary : Systemd generator to create timer units
Description :
Systemd generator to create timer units from scripts in
/etc/cron.{hourly,daily,weekly,monthly,yearly}
Using this method alleviates the need to install cron to run those
scripts. The cron implementation uses a shell script that wakes up
every hour, even when there's nothing to do. Timers on the other
hand are created only for scripts that actually exist and trigger at
the specific time the scripts must run.
