Thanks Dave.
I wrote code like below: But I am not sure how to schedule this. Could
you please guide me to configure this Scheduler (need bit more
elaborated steps). Thank you appreciate your help:
______________________
In Controller: SendEmail.py:
# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
# try something like
from gluon.tools import Mail
def send_email():
mail = Mail()
#mail.settings.server = 'smtp.hitachiconsulting.com'
mail.settings.server = 'smtp.gmail.com:587'
mail.settings.sender = '[email protected]'
mail.settings.login = '[email protected]:123'
x = mail.send(
to = ['[email protected]'], subject = 'hello',
reply_to = '[email protected]',
message = 'Hello ! How are you?'
)
if x:
nm="Sent Successfully";
else:
nm="failed";
_____________
In Controller: scheduler.py
from gluon.scheduler import Scheduler
# schedule recurring tasks:
def sched_tasks(arg1=""):
# arg1 keeps this from being expose as a web page
# instantiate Scheduler class
scheduler = Scheduler(db)
task = scheduler.queue_task("send_email", period = 86400, repeats=1)
# show on console, or add to log
print task
db.commit()
def stop_tasks(arg1=""):
# arg1 keeps this from being expose as a web page
# instantiate Scheduler class
scheduler = Scheduler(db)
task = scheduler.task_status(db.scheduler_task.task_name == 'send_email')
if hasattr(task, "status") and task.status in ["QUEUED", "RUNNING"]:
stop = scehduler.stop_task(task.uuid)
# show on console or add to log
print cue
db.commit()
