I've written a basic wrapper around sched.scheduler
, but I'm getting:
File "/usr/local/anaconda3/lib/python3.7/sched.py", line 149, in run
delayfunc(time - now)
OSError: [Errno 22] Invalid argument
What is the cause of this error? I'm following https://docs.python.org/3/library/sched.html
Code:
#!/usr/local/anaconda3/bin/python
from time import time, sleep
from datetime import datetime, timezone
from sched import scheduler
class Scheduler:
# specify one or t'other e.g. "2021-03-17 02:29:00"
def __init__(self, event_time_utc:str='', local_unix_timestamp_override:float=0):
self.event_local_timestamp = Scheduler.to_local_unix_timestamp(event_time_utc) \
if event_time_utc else local_unix_timestamp_override
# self.seconds_until_event = event_local_timestamp - time()
print(self.event_local_timestamp - time())
self.sch = scheduler()
def run(self, blocking=False):
self.sch.run(blocking)
@staticmethod
def to_local_unix_timestamp(time_utc: str):
dt_utc = datetime.strptime(time_utc, "%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S")
dt_local = dt_utc.replace(tzinfo=timezone.utc)
return dt_local.timestamp()
@staticmethod
def to_human_readable(unix_timestamp):
return datetime.fromtimestamp(unix_timestamp).strftime('%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S.%f')
def schedule(self, offset_from_event_time_s:float, callback):
print('Event scheduled for local unix timestamp:', self.event_local_timestamp + offset_from_event_time_s)
self.sch.enterabs(
time = self.event_local_timestamp + offset_from_event_time_s,
priority = 1,
action = callback
)
if __name__ == '__main__':
sch = Scheduler(local_unix_timestamp_override=time()+5)
print(f'Started at time: {Scheduler.to_human_readable(time())}')
def callback():
print(f'Callback at time: {Scheduler.to_human_readable(time())}')
sch.schedule(offset_from_event_time_s=1, callback=callback)
sch.run(blocking=True)
Output:

The root of the problem is that YOU are assuming that the sched
module is using time.time() for its timing function. That is a false assumption. It is using time.monotonic() by default, which returns the time since your program started. That is going to be a small number, like 6. When you try to delay until 1615644884.1231558, that makes it go crazy.
Change this:
self.sch = scheduler()
to this:
self.sch = scheduler(time)
I tried debugging the issue and found that the max length of floating point value allowed in time.sleep() is 8 (I couldn't find any resource on why only 8) but since you are using timestamp the value exceeds that. You can try following code on your machine and check that:
import time
# Will work fine
time.sleep(16156448)
# Will result in error
time.sleep(1615644884.1231558)
