Web interface

The web interface is a single smooth page powered by React.

Active Jobs (Home)

Displays your active functions with an input bar for directly going to an existing or new function's details page.

Job Details

Displays active/inactive jobs with their cron times and payloads. The interface makes it simple and easy to:

• Add a new job
• Deactivate/active an already existing job
• Delete a job

Running Cron Admin

To run Cron Admin, you must be using Go 1.5. To start the http server simply run

O_URL=<URL> make run

(by default the envvar PORT=80, for local development you might try setting PORT=5011). For local development and testing it's recommended to spin up a local mongo instance, via the command mongod, by which you can set MONGO_URL=localhost. Tests by default expect a mongo instance at localhost.
