Danger

Avoid (for production). Too many maintenance re-deployements failed.

ssh

CC still uses master as main branch. Pushes might be:
git push <remote> main:master

ENV variables

docs

Background application

By default apps are web focused, with middleware options such as daphne, gunicorn, uvicorn or uwsgi.
To run a script without being web focused, it is possible as a 'worker':

main.py

def application(env, start_response):
    start_response("200 OK", [])
    return [b"uwsgi application running"]

task.py

import time

from apscheduler.schedulers.background import BackgroundScheduler

def hello():
    # important to flush to get it printed outside worker
    print("Hello world!", flush=True)

print("Starting scheduler...")
scheduler = BackgroundScheduler()
scheduler.add_job(hello, 'interval', seconds=5, id='job1', replace_existing=True)
scheduler.start()
print("Scheduler started...")

while True:
    time.sleep(0.01)

Define env variables as:

Variable	Value
CC_PYTHON_MODULE	main
CC_WORKER_COMMAND	python3 task.py
