do you have it in single shot mode?

yea

When I manually run it, it does work properly.

then you wouldn't want to enable app sleeping with any kind of cron job / service

Ok yea. That is what I was wondering. Wasn't sure; but I did suspect that.

It does feel strange to me though. ….. wait. Is this just a reporting thing …. it seemed to me that it was still consuming resources. But I guess if it wasn't and it just shows up in the graphs as if it is,,, hmmmmmm

So if it is in single shot and has a railway CRON schedule, I don't need to sleep it, becuase the whole service is exited, taking up 0 resources; right?

that's correct

also, even if you where using it's node-cron thing, you still wouldn't want to sleep it, because it's not like it can wake itself up

the only thing than can wake a service is inbound public or private traffic

Right, this is intuitive. But I would think that a CRON schedule would wake it up. But I guess not.

nope, there's no traffic with that, ideally that option would be removed from the UI if you have cron enabled

Yea, that could make sense. I wonder if there is ever a reason why you would still want to sleep.

nope, there would not be a good reason to sleep a cron job

hmmmmm something feels off here ….

not enough data point to correctly draw a graph

Yea, I figure that too. Just more interesting that the different time scales show different data.

Should I manually remove the sleeping deployment?

I blame the module they use for graphs

yes

oh ummm or not

haha, switch it back to a regular service for now

Turn off single shot?

no no just remove the cron expression to switch it back to a regular service

but side note, glad you're using my single shot mode!

I figure it is better to use platform native options. And more than that, I have some ideas for a service I need to make. So I want to test out the railway native options

oh sorry I mean switch it back to a regular service to fix the sleeping service and then switch it back to a cron service

I kinda figured that, that is what you meant

you're the second person I've seen enabled app sleeping on a cron service

It did fix it

awesome
