How To Schedule Python Scripts As Cron Jobs With Crontab (Mac/Linux) - Python Task Automation

[@sudarshanrajagopalan8552]

Finally a video that explained how to use a venv in a crontab. Wasnt able to find it for a long time. Thank you a lot for this.

[@colancaster84]

I really like how you starting with the basics and built up over the course of the video. I never comment on KZbin videos but this one was really helpful. Thanks.

This is brilliant! Exactly what I was looking for - to run a specific script everyday at a certain time. Thank You!!!

@@patloeber yeah

[@SantoshKumar-ld2yb]

Very nice

[@ekowlloyd]

really nice delivery, pretty clear and easy to follow, however it just doesn't seem to work for me, I've searched all over but can't can't find why . I don't get any error, the log just doesn't get updated, even though the Cron Job seems to be registered

[@patloeber]

Typical problems: Not running from the correct folder, not having the correct folder path for the log file. not having write access to this folder. Yeah normally we don't see errors with cron jobs

[@krishdeva3751]

I'm doing the same thing...but it's not working for me...can you please me with it

[@rachit6099]

[@patloeber]

thanks!

[@rasseliodiack7159]

Thanks dude. I’m sure the next video is about Airflow.Yesterday I was wondering. Are you actually an ML engineer in a company or do you make a living out in of KZbin videos ?

[@patloeber]

I'm working full-time as a Software Engineer (this job involves ML but not everything is ML)

[@rangabharath4253]

Oversimplifications of Mac is killing my soul evertym i try to run a file.non-exe

[@patloeber]

[@ИероглифСтёршийся]

I apologize if I offend you, I like legacy tech too. Old but well tested (also by the long-term of succesful usage) and fine working programs sometimes much better choise. But systemd were released in 2010 - 11 years ago, with easy to use sintax, supporting task chaining, flexyble limiting resourses, streaming task states, templating. And you talk about CRON? Really? In 2021?

[@elchinmammadov624]

you are making things more confusing

[@3dsguy100]

This is a good and bad tutorial. My terminal looks nothing like this.
