The web2py scheduler pretty much is a background task that runs unnoticed.
I use it in a number of places to queue hundreds or thousands of outbound emails. I like the scheduler because it then also servers as a log of the emails that were sent. If that isn't what you're looking for then how about celery or redis-queue? But, they are a bother because then you have more services you need to grok, start up and manage. The web2py scheduler takes care of all of that for you. Let me know if you want to see a sample of how we handle it. -Jim On Tuesday, September 1, 2020 at 8:41:27 AM UTC-5, mostwanted wrote: > > > Is there a way to have a function always running without having to use a > scheduler? > I have a function that i want to always send emails based on its arguments > & conditions but i want it to run in the background unnoticed like a worker > but not run by a scheduler, is this possible?
