Ask HN: Free tool to schedule and receive SQL emails?

1 pointsby bruno2223over 8 years ago
There is any tool to schedule a SQL query and then receive the results every day?<p>I need to receive an email every morning telling me if my crawlers did run fine last night. I can do this with a simple SQL query.<p>I am willing to build this tool (in Node.js) if this tool does not exists just yet.<p>* No SaaS, please. I&#x27;m looking for a self-hosted option. I do not want to give a read-only password of my database for anybody.

Why not use cron?<p><pre><code> mysql the_database &lt;&lt; &quot;SELECT ....&quot; | mail -s &quot;Daily report&quot; your@email </code></pre> You can insert some formatter in between if you want. If you&#x27;d rather send emails from a proper account and not local mailer, you can use ssmtp and configure a smarthost.
