Here example with APScheduler,it's nice as can add job for several functions.
It run with
BackgroundScheduler so it will not interfef with main loop that server run.from flask import Flask, render_template, jsonify
from apscheduler.schedulers.background import BackgroundScheduler
import random
import requests
app = Flask(__name__)
def parse_func():
response = requests.get('https://nghttp2.org/httpbin/get')
r = response.json()
lst = [r['url'], r['origin']]
rand_value = random.choice(lst)
return(rand_value)
@app.route("/")
def template_test():
return render_template('sh2.html', location=parse_func())
if __name__ == '__main__':
scheduler = BackgroundScheduler()
scheduler.add_job(parse_func, 'interval', seconds=15)
scheduler.start()
app.run(debug=True)So now calling parse_func() every 15-sec,longer eg hour=12.Just to see values on client side use jinja,with a reload script.
sh2.html:
<!doctype html>
<html>
<head>
<title>Some title</title>
<link rel=stylesheet type=text/css href="{{ url_for('static', filename='css/style.css') }}" />
</head>
<body>
<p> {{ location }}</p>
</body>
<script>
function timedRefresh(timeoutPeriod) {
setTimeout("location.reload(true);",timeoutPeriod);
}
window.onload = timedRefresh(15000);
</script>
</html>Can also look at this post.
