Dkron is a system service that runs scheduled jobs at given intervals or times,
just like the cron unix service but distributed in several machines in a cluster.
If a machine fails (the leader), a follower will take over and keep running the scheduled jobs without human intervention.

  dkron [command]

Available Commands:
  agent       Start a dkron agent
  completion  Generate the autocompletion script for the specified shell
  doc         Generate Markdown documentation for the Dkron CLI.
