Looper

Looper is a service that can be used to run periodic tasks after a certain interval.

Each job runs on a separate thread and when the service is shut down, it waits till all tasks currently being executed are completed.

Inspired by this blog here

Installation

python setup.py install

or

pip install git+git://github.com/sankalpjonn/looper.git

writing a job looks like this

import time

from looper import Looper
from datetime import timedelta

loop = Looper()

@loop.job(interval=timedelta(seconds=2))
def sample_job_every_2s():
    print "2s job current time : {}".format(time.ctime())

@loop.job(interval=timedelta(seconds=5))
def sample_job_every_5s():
    print "5s job current time : {}".format(time.ctime())


@loop.job(interval=timedelta(seconds=10))
def sample_job_every_10s():
    print "10s job current time : {}".format(time.ctime())

loop.start()
