*cmd* notepad C:\web2py\applications\test\models\db_wizard_0.py db.define_table('asdf', Field('asdf'), auth.signature ) *cmd* notepad C:\web2py\applications\test\models\scheduler.py from gluon.scheduler import Scheduler def demo1(): db.asdf.insert(asdf = 'asdf') db.commit() mysched = Scheduler(db, tasks = dict(demo1 = demo1) ) *cmd* notepad C:\web2py\applications\test\controlelrs\test.py def queue_task(): #mysched.queue_task('demo1') mysched.queue_task('demo1', prevent_drift = True, repeats = 0, period = 5) *cmd* cd C:\web2py python web2py.py -a a *web browser* http://127.0.0.1:8000/test/test/queue_task http://127.0.0.1:8000/test/appadmin/select/db?query=db.scheduler_task.id%3E0 *cmd* cd C:\web2py python web2py.py -K test *web browser* http://127.0.0.1:8000/test/appadmin/select/db?query=db.scheduler_worker.id%3E0 http://127.0.0.1:8000/test/appadmin/select/db?query=db.scheduler_task.id%3E0 http://127.0.0.1:8000/test/appadmin/select/db?query=db.asdf.id%3E0 thanks and best regards, stifan -- Resources: - http://web2py.com - http://web2py.com/book (Documentation) - http://github.com/web2py/web2py (Source code) - https://code.google.com/p/web2py/issues/list (Report Issues) --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "web2py-users" group.
