Recurring Task Docker Base

A simple Docker image that repeatedly runs a command with a specified delay.

Usage

As a standalone image

Environment variables:

Name	Required	Default value	Example value	Description
COMMAND	Yes		echo Hello
AFTER_COMMAND	No		echo Hello after	Command that should be executed after COMMAND
DELAY	No	1d	7d (or any other permissible value for the sleep command)
ADJUST_FOR_RUNTIME	No	true	false	If set to true, subtracts the execution time of the task from the delay, ensuring the scheduler runs at consistent intervals (e.g., the same time each day).

As the base image of another project

See this project for an example of how to use this image as your base docker image.
