TheSchwartz in Python?

js

2/6/2008 12:39:00 PM

Hi,

I'm looking for a job queue manager in Python, like TheSchwartz.[1].
I found there's TheSchawrtz server, RPC server powered by Gearman,
to which Python/Ruby can connect [2], but setting up two languages env
is a little cumbersome to me.

Is there any alternative to that in Python?
The requirement is
* Store job queue in disk, not memory
* Easy to set up
* 100% Python

Any pointers would be appliciated.
Thanks.

Are you sure CRON won't do the job for you. If not, then you may want to at
least take a look at Python's sched module (if you haven't already).

I'd have though that "at" or "batch" would be more likely to be useful,
as the OP makes no mention of regularly -scheduled tasks.

Cool, but sched saves job in memory...

cron can't be an option. It's just a scheduler not a job queue.

Note that "at" and "batch" *are* job queues.

You could probably make lpd do what you want to do.
