Documentation status

This documentation is in a very early stage and many things could be missing or wrong. Please rely on the code for now.

Install

Make a new venv, activate it, clone the repo, run pip install. No pypi release yet. We recommend using pipenv, which makes it easy to run commands inside a virtual env without the need to create or activate it:

pip install --user pipenv  # only needed once per python install
pipenv install
pipenv run server

Usage

pypyr-scheduler needs a shared secret between the server and the client. It reads it from the environment variable PYRSCHED_SECRET. If the server does not see a secret it generates it and writes it to its logfile for later use. If there is a secret set in the environment, it is used.

A client needs the same shared secret.

Development / Testing

Run pipenv run server. Now you can connect to the server with a suitable client. Currently available are pypyr-scheduler-cli and pypyr-scheduler-rpc-client with the first one depending on the latter.

Production deployment

TBD.

Documentation

pypyr is the workhorse underlying pypyr-scheduler. It runs pipelines defines as .yaml file and has many different pipeline steps included. Check it out, if you need a simple task automation for one-shot execution.

Flask-APScheduler provides a similar way to run job within flask as server. It even provides a REST-API. Try this if you don't need the functionality of pypyr.
