I'm using whenever gem for scheduling my own rake tasks:
https://github.com/javan/whenever
Sometimes it's useful to schedule a task the last day of the month.
The gem does not provide such alias.
The solution is the following:
job_type :only_last_day, "[ \"$(/bin/date +%d -d tomorrow)\" = \"01\" ] && cd :path && :environment_variable=:environment bundle exec rake :custom_rake_task"
only_last_day "custom_task", :custom_rake_task => "your_rake_task_name"
end
- 30 10 28-31 * * means: try to launch the script every month at 28th,29th,30th,31th day at 10:30 am
- if current date plus one equals 01 it means today is the last day of the month therefore the script is eligible to be run
