bronski 0.3.1

Install

$ pip install bronski

Setup

1. Add ‘bronski’ to your INSTALLED_APPS

   This is only needed to enable the management command.

2. Create a model in your own app that inherits from bronski.models.CrontabBase

3. Create and apply migrations:

   $ manage.py makemigrations
   $ manage.py migrate

4. Specify your model in settings

   CRONTAB_MODEL = "myapp.MyCronModel"

5. Launch your beat server:

   $ ./manage.py bronski

Each minute the bronski service will scan the model for enabled jobs that haven’t been run in the past 59 seconds. It will then check each to see if its crontab definition matches the next minute.

For job records that match, their run method will be called. The default run method will:

• get the specified function by calling self.get_function()

• resolve the kwargs to use by calling self.get_kwargs()

• invoke the function with the kwargs.

You can override run in your custom model to, for instance, enqueue jobs:

class Jobs(CrontabBase):

    def run(self):
        func = self.get_function()
        kwargs = self.get_kwargs()

        # Celery task API:
        func.delay(**kwargs)
        # Dramatiq actor API:
        func.send(**kwargs)
