javascript - How to run cron job with Firebase?

Question

I am trying to run a cron job with Firebase. Basically I need to run a function that makes a ton of API calls and pushes data to firebase at 12:00am PST every day. Is there a way for me to do this on the server side with Firebase?

I see that there's this module here, but I don't understand how it works at all. If anyone has any ideas or know how the aforementioned module could work that would be fantastic.

EDIT: Idea. What if I were to create a data entry that showed the time that the function was completed. Basically check to see that last time the function was called and completed. If it's past 12am then the function is called and the field is updated so it's not called until the next day. Would this be a good idea? I don't need the function to happen at 12am exactly, I just need it to be completed by the time the first user logs in.
