driver = webdriver.Chrome(PATH)

driver.get("https://freebitco.in")

time.sleep(2)
driver.find_element_by_link_text('LOGIN').click()
time.sleep(3)
driver.find_element_by_id("login_form_btc_address").send_keys("EMAILADDRESS")
driver.find_element_by_id("login_form_password").send_keys("PASSWORD")

time.sleep(5)
driver.find_element_by_class_name("close-reveal-modal").click()
driver.quit()

I want to repeat this script every 60 minutes

Answer 1

Inside the code, you can achieve this with a long sleep:

while True:
  # existing code goes here...
  time.sleep(60 * 60) # secs x mins

You might want to change the while condition to something else if you need to test for and stop in certain circumstances.

Answer 2

You can use thread sleep like this in Python.

import time
while True:
   #Your Code
   time.sleep(60)

Answer 3

First put all the code inside a function. Then use timer function of threading module as below to repeat function after certin time interval.

import threading

def your_function():
  #your code inside function goes here. Make sure the below line is at last.
  threading.Timer(5.0, your_function).start()


your_function

# continue with the rest of your code

Replace 5.0 with your desired time.
