Heroku CLI, Configuration as code and more news

Our ants were super busy this month, and have managed to come up with a number of much anticipated features!

Heroku CLI support

You can now use Heroku CLI to control, monitor, and manage your jobs from your favorite terminal! Install the plugin and use the command line to create, update, delete, run and list jobs. We also added the option to import job definition from a yaml configuration file so that you can avoid having to manually manage each job separately!

To install the plugin, run the following command in your terminal:

$ heroku plugins:install heroku-cron

Please check out our CLI documentation for more information.

Configuration as code

Using the Heroku CLI, in conjunction with our buildpack and Heroku’s release phase, allows you to store your Cron To Go configuration as a file in your repository and automatically update your jobs every time you deploy to Heroku.

You can learn more by reading our quick post about Cron To Go configuration as code.

Execution summary pagination

When you browse through your job execution history, you can now easily navigate past executions with our enhanced pagination. Efficient and time-saving!

Stay tuned for more exciting, new features and feel free to reach out to us via our live in-app chat or email with feedback, questions, or any ideas you have free-flowing!
