Title: Cronjobs on runit?

I'm using the runit system and I would like to know if setting up cronjobs is the same as in systemd, on systemd I would install cronie and enable the service with sudo systemctl enable --now cronie, what would be the alternative for runit?

Yup, just make sure that cronie and cronie-runit are installed and that the service is up and running

Thanks I installed cronie-runit and ran

Code: [Select]

sudo ln -s /etc/runit/sv/cronie /run/runit/service

then

Code: [Select]

sv start cronie

to start the service, thanks for the help

Thank you, I am being an idiot just the whole time without installing cronie-runit.
