Creating Cron Job With Kotlin's Ktor

[Adam Hurwitz]

Hi AppEngine Community, 👋

Is there a way to run Cron Jobs with Ktor?

I'm currently hosting multiple Java .jar apps written in Kotlin on AppEngine. I'm looking to refactor these apps into Ktor apps on AppEngine with a Cron Job for scheduled tasks, as the .jar apps I've noticed have more issues with dependencies. 

I'm looking for Ktor's equivalent to Cloud Functions' built-in implementation for Cron Jobs with JavaScript. 

functions.pubsub.schedule

Back-up option: If Ktor does not have this feature and I want to keep the code in Kotlin, Google has an alpha, Using Kotlin with Google Cloud Functions. It appears Kotlin + Cloud Functions' built-in implementation could be used with this approach.

Much appreciated!
