Scheduled tasks with no start date or start time should run continuously

Description

I have a need for a server that runs a coldbox application to start running that application whenever the server is launched, without needing to hit it with a web browser first. I understand that there is an onserverstart() function but it's hard to get to and manage with commandbox instances. Much easier would be the following code - when run once, without a start time param, it should create a scheduled task that starts running when the server comes up. Such a task should initialize the application automatically whenever the server is rebooted.

This might work, but I need a dynamic way of grabbing the server port.

I am now wondering if I can write a generic function that uses gettempdirectory() to gather the path to the server folder, check for the existence of a server.cfc file and write one if it doesnā€™t exist. Is there a way to gather the web servers (ports specifically) that the server knows about on startup from the server context?

off the top of my head, only the server context is started automatically, the web context starts on demand (with tomcat) but Iā€™m pretty sure a manually configured tomcat context that can be automatically configured in tomcat to start, maybe undertow has an option to do that too?
