symfony - Create a command in Symfony5 that executes several times from an hour

Question

I would like to know how to create a command in Symfony 5 that executes several times from an hour. I give you an example:

1. Create a command that we will call with the option

app:schedule-command

https://symfony.com/doc/current/console.html

2. The content of the command will be only this:

echo "Hello world";

3. This command will be executed every 5 minutes, every day from 11:00pm to 11:30pm.

NOTE: This is not valid for me:

https://symfony.com/doc/current/cloud/cookbooks/crons.html

(use Symfony Cloud, and i want to test in local)

Thank you very much for your help.

Answer 1

You need to use this cron: 0-30/5 23 * * * bin/console app:schedule-command

For testing locally, if you are under linux or macOS, CRON are working as well. If you are under windows, you can use the Windows Task Scheduler.
