AhmedrufaiI looked at APScheduler and like Celery it is too much of a
sledgehammer for my tiny problem. I ended up using cron to launch the command
each day. It works perfectly.My task now is to find a way to automate
establishment of that crontab entry when the project is migrated to a new
server.CheersMike--(Unsigned mail from my phone)

options Hi Mike,I've implemented something similar to what you mentioned
lately. I used this Python package called APScheduler to schedule and run
database intensive queries behind the scene and then cache the result for my
users to fetch from making their experience super fast.The APScheduler can be
configured to run at any interval daily, weekly, monthly or any customized
interval you require. It's a game changer and a quick win for Windows based OS
as they don't support the use of Celery or any other Linux based schedulers
without WSL.Do let me know if you're interested in my implementation, I'm open
to show you.Regards On Mon, Oct 23, 2023, 11:09 AM Mike Dewhirst

Django docs suggest cron or Windows scheduler for running management

I would like instead to build an internal Django based scheduler -
because after migrating to a new server, setting up the new cron
task will be forgotten.
Is there a daily (approximately) event in a Django project I can
hook into and test the date?
The task is somewhat database intensive and needs to run quarterly
for some users, monthly for most and weekly for others depending on
their preferences.
Ideas anyone?
Thanks
Mike
