API

setup

setup(io_loop=None)

bind a io_loop or use default ioloop.

schedule

schedule(name, timer, func, once=False, start=False, process=False, max_executor=5)

add task into chronos:

:name: uniqe task name, :timer: every timer object :func: the task function :once: set True will run only once time. :start: when chronos start and schedule a new task, if set to True will add to Tornado IOLoop and schedule to run at time. :process: if process is True, then the job will run in on a procees, otherwise defaultly running in thread. :max_executor: the max threads(or processes) to run a task.

remove_task

remove_task(task_name)

stop and remove the task from chronos

start_task

start_task(task_name)

start the task in chronos

stop_task

stop_task(task_name)

stop the task in chronos

start

start(start_ioloop=False)

add tasks in ioloop, if you use chronos in a tornado web server, you can set start_ioloop to "False", then start your custom ioloop later.

stop

stop(stop_ioloop=False, clear=True)

stop the task in ioloop

:stop_ioloop: will stop the ioloop if set to "True". :clear: will remove tasks from chrons if set to "True".

how to use every tools

every_second

set eveny seconds to run a job:

every_second(5) # run job every 5 seconds

every_at

set every hourly or mintuely run a job::

every_at(hour=1, minute=10, second=0) # run at 01:10:00 every day
every_at(minute=10, second=0) # run at run at 10 mintue every hour

every

.. code-block:: python

every(10).minutes
every().hour
every().day.at("10:30")
every().monday
every().wednesday.at("13:15")
