A scheduler for docker containers, made easy. Configure the desired schedule per each container and the library ensures the container will be running at the correct timing.
To start the scheduler, run the command below
import container_scheduler
schedules = [
{"container": "container_name_1", "crontab": "*/1 * * * *"},
{"container": "container_name_2", "crontab": "0 4 * * *"}
]
container_scheduler.start(schedules)
The function start
is synchronous and will not return until the scheduler is running. To stop it gracefully,
you can send a SIGTERM
or a SIGKILL
signal.
The library was originally developed to work in a docker container, acting as a scheduler container for other containers (take a look at docker-container-scheduler)

The scheduling is executed by the schedule-cronjob library, a fork of the excellent schedule from Daniel Bader.
