QUESTION

Python, Use threading and schedule to keep running a function constantly

Asked 2021-Jun-12 at 18:43

I am making a bot that auto-posts to Instagram using instabot, now the thing is that if I exceed a number of request the bot terminate the script after retrying for some minutes.

The solution I came up with is to schedule the script to run every hour or so, and to ensure that the script will keep running constantly I used threading to restart the posting function when the thread is dead.

The function responsible for posting, in this code if the bot instance from instabot retried sending requests for some minutes and failed, it terminates the whole script.

Looks to me like schedule and threading are overkill for your use case as your script only performs one single task, so you do not need concurrency and can run the whole thing in the main thread. You primarily just need to catch exceptions from the main function. I would go with something like this:

Problem

The problem it you are setting your comment_box equal to an driver action not a web element. It will send out error "object has no attribute 'send_keys'" because it not an web element.

Also your comment_box is load more than one time. So you need to declare comment_box again after clicking it the first time.

Asked 2021-Jan-19 at 13:26

I'm building an Instagram upload bot. Function upload is expected to receive an image location and then proceed to upload it. The issue I'm facing is that the loop that goes through each individual element on an image list prints back numbers, instead of a string. I have isolated the code to:

you are trying to get all the paths, but what you are doing is actually read the images and get the pixel data. To get all the paths you can use the glob module.
Add from glob import glob to your imports and change the following line:

I should have waited for the page to load before searching for the elements, they are of two types:

1 explicit waits

2 implicit waits

These are actually documented here : https://selenium-python.readthedocs.io/waits.html

Log management script: A front end for my Json formatted log file?

Asked 2020-Oct-25 at 11:30

I am quite new to software dev, but got my first app running. I am generating a lots of log (in .log format, split on 4 levels), my logs are saved in format Json (see here some exemple: https://instabot-cvs.herokuapp.com/log/)

I am not sure if what I am looking for exist: ideally a piece of code (JS based would be best) hosted on my server (Heroku), which would take my .log as an input, and offer my a nice Frontend with filtering and analysis possibilities? And open sources :)?

Am I dreaming, or does this exist? My several attempt a googling such a solution were so far unsuccessful ...

I would be thanksful for any help/tips/explainations. Clément

ANSWER

Answered 2020-Oct-25 at 11:30

There are many services that do what you ask for, a few popular open source projects are "logstash" or "graylog", however these are very big and robust, not a small piece of JS you can run on your heroku server.

However a quick google search shows that there are many log-related Heroku add-ons, like this one
