I have a ruby file, and I need to run it every 3 hours. This code works fine:
27 */3 * * * /path/to/ruby -rubygems /path/to/ruby_file.rb
And I do not want this file to work between midnight 12:00 a.m. to 8:00 a.m.
How to install it?
27 9-23/3 * * * should work on most modern Unix variants.
27 9-23/3 * * *
27 9-23/3 * * * /path/to/ruby -rubygems /path/to/ruby_file.rb
gotta do the trick.
A good summary of everything can be found in this wikipedia article .
