Accessing context from the node-cron function

Hello!

I have difficulties with accessing telegram context from the node-cron function. What I want to achieve:

var cron = require('node-cron');
 
cron.schedule('* * * * *', () => {
  ctx.session.variable = 'something';
  ctx.telegram.sendMessage(chatID, message);
  <..>
});

You got a general idea. Is it possible or I should look in another direction? The main goal is to periodically execute something. Right now it looks like this:

bot.on('text', (ctx) => {
    if ((ctx.message.date - ctx.session.variableWithTimestamp) > 3600) {
    ctx.session.variableWithTimestamp += 3600;
    //do something
  }
})

and I understand that there should be much better way to perform it

@Raingerlina context is a short-lived and valid only during update processing.

For sending messages from any kind of a queues/schedulers use Telegram instance. And you can access to session directly, without context.

As far as I understand you still need to clarify the session key manually in order to access it outside the context. Because otherwise how would the redis itself know where to retrieve and put the information
