upstart run script between particular time
I would like to run a script between two hours using upstart:
- start at: 9h00
- stop at: 23h30
This is my upstart:
author "bakka"
start on runlevel [2345]
stop on runlevel [!2345]
respawn
script
H_BEGIN="905"
H_END="2330"
H_NOW=$(date +%k%M)
if [[ ${H_NOW} -gt ${H_BEGIN} && ${H_NOW} -lt ${H_END} ]]; then
exec my_python_script
fi
end script
but it doesn't seems to take the condition, even if i remove the "start on runlevel [2345]"
i've already take a look here: http://upstart.ubuntu.com/faq.html#replace-cron
You'd be able to have a service only running between particular times,
or on particular days, etc.
Blockquote
But it's not made very clear.
If somebody knows how to specify a between time to launch something by using upstart, it would be nice.

This was never implemented as a part of upstart. I would suggest using the very simple tool snooze in conjunction with upstart. This is how I run my cron.{hourly,daily,weekly,monthly} scripts on void linux.
For your particular case, starting the job at 9:00 and stopping it at 23:30, you would use three jobs like this:
description "start my service if it is after 9:00 but before 23:30"
emits start-myservice
start on runlevel [2345]
stop on runlevel [!2345]
respawn
exec snooze -H9 -s870 -- initctl emit start-myservice
description "stop my service if it is after 23:30 but before 9:00"
emits stop-myservice
start on runlevel [2345]
stop on runlevel [!2345]
respawn
exec snooze -H23 -M30 -s570 -- initctl emit stop-myservice
description "my service"
start on start-myservice
stop on stop-myservice
respawn
exec my_python_script
Thanks a lot, this do what i want nicely
