Django Run APScheduler Command

Django Run APScheduler Command is a command that simplifies management of scheduler for django apps and moves those tasks to a separate django process, so you can run heavy tas without worrying of django app stalling.

To use the command firstly you need to create scheduler.py file inside your app and attach runapscheduler.scheduled_job decorator to any function.

runapscheduler.scheduled_job decorator accepts the same parameters as APSceduler's scheduled_job decorator.

Also it's possible to pass some options to schedulers. To do add RUNAPSCHEDULER_OPTIONS dictionary to setting.py. First key must be a name of scheduler and the value of that key must be a dict filled as in Method 2 in APScheduler documentation. Example:

RUNAPSCHEDULER_OPTIONS = {
    'BackgroundScheduler': {
        'apscheduler.jobstores.default': {
            'type': 'sqlalchemy',
            'url': 'sqlite:///jobs.sqlite'
        },
        'apscheduler.executors.default': {
            'class': 'apscheduler.executors.pool:ThreadPoolExecutor',
            'max_workers': '20'
        },
        'apscheduler.job_defaults.coalesce': 'false',
        'apscheduler.job_defaults.max_instances': '3',
        'apscheduler.timezone': 'UTC',
    }
}
