Nextcloud-cronjob

Docker app from Kilrah's Repository

Overview

Nextcloud cron job runner. The official Nextcloud Docker container needs something external to run its cron jobs reliably, this is a simple solution to this problem to avoid having to delve into user scripts. Make sure to select "Cron (Recommended)" for the Background Jobs option in your nextcloud instance's Basic Settings.
