I ve set up a simple cron schedule which is running correctl

Question

I ve set up a simple cron schedule which is running correctly However a solid in the pipeline calls `docker` through `subprocess call ` which seems not to be on the path when cron runs I can manually fix this by adding `export PATH= usr local bin usr local sbin ~ bin usr bin bin usr sbin sbin` to the `$DAGSTER HOME schedules scripts sh` file although this file is overwritten each time I call `dagster schedule up` Is there a better approach workaround for this

I ve got this working with something like the following in the solid instead of manually editing the bash script ```my env = os environ copy my env PATH = usr local bin usr local sbin ~ bin usr bin bin usr sbin sbin res = subprocess check call docker lt other args gt ``` This doesn t feel very elegant so I d still like a better approach if anyone has any suggestions

i cant think of a cleaner workaround confused there is a new daemon based scheduler impl coming in `0 10 0` that should remove these cron related issues so keep an eye out for that
