In this video, you will learn How to setup a Python FastAPI cron job.

Cron Jobs: - cron job is a task that is scheduled to run automatically at a specific time or interval. Cron jobs are commonly used in Unix-based operating systems to automate repetitive tasks such as backups, log rotation, and system maintenance.

A cron job is a task that runs periodically on a schedule, such as sending emails, scraping websites, or updating databases.

Fastapi is a modern, fast, and high-performance web framework for building APIs with python.

It has many features that make it easy to create and test cron job, such as dependency injection, background tasks, and testing tools.

You will see how to use fastapi to create a simple task that runs a cron job every 2 seconds.

This tutorial is suitable for beginners who want to learn more about fastapi, python, and setting up a cron job.

You can accomplish this by triggering a loop inside a start-up event, but there are a few challenges to overcome.

The following steps will be involved:

First you will create a python virtual environment and install the pip requirements.

Later create a main.py file.
After that:

~ from fastapi import FastAPI
~ from apscheduler.schedulers.background import BackgroundScheduler
~ from contextlib import asynccontextmanager
~ import uvicorn

scheduler = BackgroundScheduler()
scheduler.start() - starts background scheduler to run the cron job or the scheduled task.
scheduler.shutdown() - stops background scheduler running the cron job or the scheduled task.

By the end of this tutorial, you will have a working cron job that you can customize and deploy to your own projects.
