# Crolim - Cron Limiter
This utility allows you to schedule frequent cron jobs that don't actually do anything until some criteria is met (e.g. date changed).
Example use case: your phone is suspended throughout the day and you want to run a daily cron job without waking the phone needlessly.
## Usage
Mostly usable as a "prefix" for your cron jobs.
## Basic
Run a podcast getter daily
```
crolim podget
```
## Advanced
Run a podcast getter daily (explicit version of the basic example):
```
crolim --memory-file=$HOME/.config/crolim/memory-podcast --status-command="date +%D" podget
```
## Install
Copy it to `/usr/local/bin/` with execute permissions.
