Heroku Scheduler doesn't have a weekly option, only daily. Open a support request with Heroku for this. In the meantime do one of:

  • modify the script to work when scheduled daily
  • use a cron on a different box than Heroku
  • run the script manually

Right now we're running it manually (on my laptop 😱). We should automate this.

Request for weekly scheduling was denied. Pointed to option #1 above as well as custom clock processes.

Since we're still running manually (see #9), this changeset doesn't
actually enforce the policy change. It simply reflects it in the copy on
the website.

I've been depending on /usr/bin/time to tell me how long the payday
script runs. This commit adds that logic to the payday script itself,
reducing our dependency on external tools and setting us up for further
automation of payday (#9).

I think the current script (at least the way I run it) could do with a bit of automation. I'm keeping this open and assigning to myself - will try to add stuff here every payday as I try to automate more and more of payday

Closing in light of our decision to shut down Gratipay.

Thank you all for a great run, and I'm sorry it didn't work out! 😞 💃
