Scheduled Jobs

Every job is a LaunchAgent plist in ~/Library/LaunchAgents that launchd itself owns: it fires on schedule with bb closed, runs a missed fire once when the Mac wakes, and stays disabled across reboots once you disable it. One sidebar page is where you make, read and change those jobs.

What you get

• Jobs on a five-field cron expression or a fixed interval, with the schedule shown in words as you type it.
• The status launchd reports, the last twenty runs with duration and exit code, and the tail of the log.
• Follow a log live while a job runs.
• Run now, Enable, Disable, Edit and Delete, each doing the launchd part for you.
• Commands run through your login shell with your terminal's PATH, so tools from Homebrew or a version manager are found.
• The sidebar row says how many jobs are failing; opening a job clears it until it fails again.
• With several Macs connected to bb, a picker chooses whose jobs you see.
• Jobs made by the Paseo launchd-jobs plugin appear as they are, with their history, and are never moved.

What it needs

macOS on the Mac whose jobs you manage. Commands run as you, with your permissions; only plists under the plugin's own label prefix are ever listed or changed.

Not a replacement for bb automations

bb's built-in automations run scripts and agents from the bb server while it runs. Use this plugin for commands that must run on a schedule whether or not bb is open.
