Timer

The following config will attach a timer trigger and causes the function hello_world to be called every 5 seconds. The configuration allows you to attach multiple timer triggers to the same function. You can use the cron syntax. Take a look at the Timer documentation for more details.

functions:
  hello_world:
    handler: index.main_handler
    runtime: Nodejs8.9

    events:
      - timer:
          name: timer
          parameters:
            cronExpression: '*/5 * * * *'
            enable: true
