hot to get status and hour / minute settinng of cron type job

[bovic]

HI there,

i am just starting with flask / python and having difficulties to display the details of a job.

I want to display the following for cron style jobs:

* Job Name (or job id)

* hour

* minute

* status (paused, active or currently running)

I tried very unsuccessfully:

    job_list = '<h3>Job Info</h3><br/>'
    for job in scheduler.get_jobs():
        job_list += job.name + job.trigger['hour'] + job.trigger['minute'] + job.status

i think it's just a syntax problem with the hour/minute values, i haven't figured out how to get the status (Paused|Running|?)

I am glad for every hint here.

You can't concatenate arbitrary types in Python. Use string formatting instead: https://docs.python.org/3.5/library/stdtypes.html#printf-style-string-formatting

thanks!

turns out i was also lacking the concept of fields ... it works now :)

    joblist = ''
    for job in scheduler.get_jobs():
        job =  scheduler.get_job(job.id)
        for f in job.trigger.fields:
            if f.name == 'hour':
                hour = f
            if f.name == 'minute':
                minute = f
        joblist += '%(jobname)s : %(jobhour)s:%(jobminute)s' % {"jobname": job.name, "jobhour": hour, "jobminute": minute}
    return joblist

With this code, your jobs will be concatenated to one string without any delimiters and it looks bad.

How about this instead?

joblist = []

joblist.append('{job.name}: {job.hour}:{job.minute}'.format(job=job))

return '\n'.join(joblist)

Hi Alex, this is neat, thank you!

this is how I innitialize my job:

from datetime import datetime, timedelta
	class Config(object):
	JOBS = [
	{
	'id': 'cron_coffee',
	'func': 'jobs:make_coffee',
	'trigger': 'cron',
	'hour': '7',
	'minute': '1',
	},
	]
	SCHEDULER_VIEWS_ENABLED = True

is it possible to "start" the job as "paused"? I think it will be more secure, so i will not burn down my kitchen.

cheers and thanks!

Hi.

I am also having trouble interpreting the output of get_jobs.  I am trying suggestions from here and still have some questions and problems.

First of all, when I try this code:

return '\n'.join(joblist)


I get an error:

AttributeError: 'Job' object has no attribute 'hour'

From looking at the data structure, this error makes sense, as hour, minute, second, etc. are in "fields".

Yet the original poster was happy with this response.  So I am clearly misunderstanding something.

Could you explain how to use this?

Also, in "bovic"'s original code, he does:

    for job in scheduler.get_jobs():
        job =  scheduler.get_job(job.id)

Why is the second line necessary?  Isn't each job in the for loop a job just as the one returned from get_jobs?  It looks as though he is getting the list of jobs, looping through it, and then taking the id from job to call get_job to set "job" to the same thing it referred to already.  Am I missing something, or is this code redundant?

Thank you.
