Cron Job Submission For Frederick Adewole

How to run

  • Install kotlin if you already haven't here
  • Navigate into this folder by running cd <path_to_this_folder>
  • Compile the code by running kotlinc <name_of_kotlin_file> -include-runtime -d <name_of_compiled_jar_file.jar Assuming the name of the kotlin file is cron.kt, then we'd run our command as so kotlinc cron.kt -include-runtime -d cron.jar
  • Next we run this command to concatenate and run the command line app: cat <name_of_file_containing_our_parameters>| java -jar <compiled_jar_file>.jar <simulated_current_time>. A valid command to run this file would be this cat input.txt| java -jar cron.jar 16:10
