Cron Jobs

EMBRACE currently only has one cron job implemented, but more in the future are planned.

Emby Watch History Refresh

TODO: add environment variable for custom discord webhook

Located under: scripts/cron/emby_refresh_watch_hist.sh

The purpose of this cron job is to refresh the Emby watch history database daily at 00:00.

This script has three modes, you can also use the "--help" flag to see these options: - install_refresh_cron.sh - install or update the cron job - install_refresh_cron.sh --remove - remove the cron job - install_refresh_cron.sh --run - run the job once now (same command cron would run)

Running this script will add a cron job to the executing machine which does the following: 1. Renames the current SQLite database file to append the current date + time (Australia/melbourne timezone) and ".backup" 2. Moves the now 'backup' file to sqlite_db/backups 3. Run the a python script to create a new SQLite database file, build the schema, and import the required Emby data

The mentioned python script is located under scripts/sqlite/emby_refresh_watch_hist.py.
