Schedules - Create non-blocking scheduled tasks.
Installation
Use the package manager pip to install schedules.
pip install schedulesUsage
Timer
Here is a simple timer scheduled task example.
After 3 days, 1 hour, 30 minutes and 10 seconds task will execute.
import schedules
# example task
def task(argument):
print(argument)
# initialize a timer
timer = schedules.timer()
# Start the timer.
# "repeat=True" means the task not execute only once,
# it will execute every 3 days, 1 hour, 30 minutes and 10 seconds infinite times.
timer.day(3).hour(1).minute(30).second(10).start(target=task, args=("Example",), repeat=True)If the task is asynchronous, You can do this:
import schedules
# example task
async def task(argument):
print(argument)
# initialize a timer
timer = schedules.timer()
# Start the timer.
timer.day(3).hour(1).minute(30).second(10).start(target=task, args=("Example",), asynchronous=True)Every
If you don't want the task to execute at a certain time, you can use every.
Every time the minutes are 0 (every new hour), task will execute.
import schedules
# example task
def task(argument):
print(argument)
# initialize "every"
every = schedules.every()
# Start the timer.
# "repeat=True" means the task not execute only once,
# it will execute every time the minutes are 0 (every new hour) infinite times.
every.minute(0).start(target=task, args=("Example",), repeat=True)
# This code will execute the task at 2:30pm and 10 seconds everyday:
every.hour(14).minute(30).second(10).start(target=task, args=("Example",), repeat=True)If the task is asynchronous, You can do this:
import schedules
# example task
async def task(argument):
print(argument)
# initialize "every"
every = schedules.every()
# Start the timer.
every.hour(14).minute(30).second(10).start(target=task, args=("Example",), asynchronous=True)Contributing
