Track Your Go Cron Jobs

When setting up cron jobs in Go, it is important to track their execution status. A minor failure in a cron job can cause your Go application to stop working correctly. SaasHound makes it easy to track your cron jobs and their execution status in real time.

Getting Started with SaasHound and Go

Setting up SaasHound with Go is straightforward! Follow these steps:

1. Create a free SaasHound account.
2. Create a new project on your dashboard.
3. Copy your API key from the settings page. Go to SaasHound Dashboard.

Go Code Snippets for Tracking Cron Jobs

Once your SaasHound account is set up, you can use the following code snippet to track your cron jobs. Replace API_KEY with your SaasHound API key and update your project name.

package main

import (
  "bytes"
  "encoding/json"
  "fmt"
  "net/http"
)

func logEvent() {
  apiURL := "https://api.saashound.co/log-event"
  payload := map[string]interface{}{
    "project":     "my-project",
    "channel":     "cron-jobs",
    "event":       "Cronjob Started",
    "description": "job id: email-notifications",
    "icon":        "⏰",
    "notify":      true
  }

  payloadBytes, err := json.Marshal(payload)
  if err != nil {
    fmt.Println("Error marshaling payload:", err)
    return
  }

  req, err := http.NewRequest("POST", apiURL, bytes.NewReader(payloadBytes))
  if err != nil {
    fmt.Println("Error creating request:", err)
    return
  }

  req.Header.Set("Content-Type", "application/json")
  req.Header.Set("Authorization", "Bearer API_TOKEN")

  client := http.DefaultClient
  resp, err := client.Do(req)
  if err != nil {
    fmt.Println("Error sending request:", err)
    return
  }
  defer resp.Body.Close()

  if resp.StatusCode >= 200 && resp.StatusCode < 300 {
    fmt.Println("Log event sent successfully!")
  } else {
    fmt.Println("Failed to send log event. Response code:", resp.StatusCode)
  }
}

func main() {
  logEvent()
}
