# It shouldn't drift, but that's untested

# Keep in mind you can't catch Exceptions for this, it just crashes the thread.

Run stuff repeatedly every x seconds

Example usage (from SO and ported to Python 3):
|
|
from time import sleep
|
|
|
|
def hello(name):
|
|
print "Hello %s!" % name
|
|
|
|
print()"starting...")
|
|
rt = RepeatedTimer(1, hello, "World") # it auto-starts, no need of rt.start()
|
|
try:
|
|
sleep(5) # your long-running job goes here...
|
|
catch:
|
|
rt.stop() # better in a try/catch block to make sure the program ends!
