Firebase alternative TrailBase 0.8.0 brings new cron job features & dashboard enhancements
TrailBase, a fast and open source Firebase alternative, has released version 0.8.0, introducing several new features and enhancements. This update brings support for periodic cron jobs, and adds the ability for users to register their own cron jobs directly from the JavaScript runtime. Additionally, a new dashboard has been added to the admin user interface, enabling users to inspect, configure, and trigger these cron jobs efficiently.
The internal periodic tasks have been replaced with cron jobs, enhancing configurability, discoverability, and reducing drift. This version also includes a breaking change with the removal of backup_interval_sec from the proto config. Users who have explicitly specified this will need to adjust by removing it from their /config.textproto and setting an appropriate cron schedule instead.
