Linux“at”任务调度程序是否有python模块

Question

Lest I reinvent the wheel .... again:

Is there a python interface, API or module for the standard linux "at" task scheduler? I have tried searching the internet but searching for the word "at" is a tad bit useless :-)

My intention is to have a python script process same data and construct a shell file. Then use a subprocess call to have "at" schedule the job file for a specific date and time. I will have a similar function using "Schtasks.exe" if python detects it is running on windows. Lastly the python script exits ... leaving system scheduler the responsibility of running the job file.

update 1 July 2019: Found an interesting "at" quirk. The file called on the "at" command line ( ie the script or shell file ) does not need to be marked as "executable" in order to be run by "at".

For the record: I am running Linux Mint 19.1

You can achieve this with different approach:

• Write your python script.
• Call this script with a bash file.
• Schedule bash file with a crontab task.
