Python job scheduling for humans.
An in-process scheduler for periodic jobs that uses the builder pattern for configuration. Schedule lets you run Python functions (or any other callable) periodically at pre-determined intervals using a simple, human-friendly syntax.
Inspired by Adam Wiggins' article "Rethinking Cron" (Google cache) and the clockwork Ruby module.
- A simple to use API for scheduling jobs.
- Very lightweight and no external dependencies.
- Excellent test coverage.
- Tested on Python 2.7 and 3.4
$ pip install schedule
import schedule
import time
def job():
print("I'm working...")
schedule.every(10).minutes.do(job)
schedule.every().hour.do(job)
schedule.every().day.at("10:30").do(job)
schedule.every().monday.do(job)
schedule.every().wednesday.at("13:15").do(job)
while True:
schedule.run_pending()
time.sleep(1)
