我最终使用了时间表模块。API很好。

import schedule
import time

def job():
    print("I'm working...")

schedule.every(10).minutes.do(job)
schedule.every().hour.do(job)
schedule.every().day.at("10:30").do(job)
schedule.every(5).to(10).minutes.do(job)
schedule.every().monday.do(job)
schedule.every().wednesday.at("13:15").do(job)
schedule.every().minute.at(":17").do(job)

while True:
    schedule.run_pending()
    time.sleep(1)

import time, traceback

def every(delay, task):
  next_time = time.time() + delay
  while True:
    time.sleep(max(0, next_time - time.time()))
    try:
      task()
    except Exception:
      traceback.print_exc()
      # in production code you might want to have this instead of course:
      # logger.exception("Problem while executing repetitive task.")
    # skip tasks if we are behind schedule:
    next_time += (time.time() - next_time) // delay * delay + delay

def foo():
  print("foo", time.time())

every(5, foo)

如果你想在不阻塞剩余代码的情况下这样做，你可以使用这个让它在自己的线程中运行:

import threading
threading.Thread(target=lambda: every(5, foo)).start()

该解决方案结合了其他解决方案中很少结合的几个特性:

Exception handling: As far as possible on this level, exceptions are handled properly, i. e. get logged for debugging purposes without aborting our program. No chaining: The common chain-like implementation (for scheduling the next event) you find in many answers is brittle in the aspect that if anything goes wrong within the scheduling mechanism (threading.Timer or whatever), this will terminate the chain. No further executions will happen then, even if the reason of the problem is already fixed. A simple loop and waiting with a simple sleep() is much more robust in comparison. No drift: My solution keeps an exact track of the times it is supposed to run at. There is no drift depending on the execution time (as in many other solutions). Skipping: My solution will skip tasks if one execution took too much time (e. g. do X every five seconds, but X took 6 seconds). This is the standard cron behavior (and for a good reason). Many other solutions then simply execute the task several times in a row without any delay. For most cases (e. g. cleanup tasks) this is not wished. If it is wished, simply use next_time += delay instead.

像这样将你的时间循环锁定到系统时钟上:

import time
starttime = time.time()
while True:
    print("tick")
    time.sleep(60.0 - ((time.time() - starttime) % 60.0))

我认为更简单的方法是:

import time

def executeSomething():
    #code here
    time.sleep(60)

while True:
    executeSomething()

这样，你的代码被执行，然后等待60秒，然后再次执行，等待，执行，等等…… 没有必要把事情复杂化:D

另一种灵活性解决方案是Apscheduler。

pip install apscheduler

from apscheduler.schedulers.background import BlockingScheduler
def print_t():
  pass

sched = BlockingScheduler()
sched.add_job(print_t, 'interval', seconds =60) #will do the print_t work for every 60 seconds

sched.start()

另外，apscheduler提供了如下所示的许多调度程序。

BlockingScheduler: use when the scheduler is the only thing running in your process BackgroundScheduler: use when you’re not using any of the frameworks below, and want the scheduler to run in the background inside your application AsyncIOScheduler: use if your application uses the asyncio module GeventScheduler: use if your application uses gevent TornadoScheduler: use if you’re building a Tornado application TwistedScheduler: use if you’re building a Twisted application QtScheduler: use if you’re building a Qt application

我用这个方法使每小时产生60个事件，其中大多数事件在整分钟后的相同秒数内发生:

import math
import time
import random

TICK = 60 # one minute tick size
TICK_TIMING = 59 # execute on 59th second of the tick
TICK_MINIMUM = 30 # minimum catch up tick size when lagging

def set_timing():

    now = time.time()
    elapsed = now - info['begin']
    minutes = math.floor(elapsed/TICK)
    tick_elapsed = now - info['completion_time']
    if (info['tick']+1) > minutes:
        wait = max(0,(TICK_TIMING-(time.time() % TICK)))
        print ('standard wait: %.2f' % wait)
        time.sleep(wait)
    elif tick_elapsed < TICK_MINIMUM:
        wait = TICK_MINIMUM-tick_elapsed
        print ('minimum wait: %.2f' % wait)
        time.sleep(wait)
    else:
        print ('skip set_timing(); no wait')
    drift = ((time.time() - info['begin']) - info['tick']*TICK -
        TICK_TIMING + info['begin']%TICK)
    print ('drift: %.6f' % drift)

info['tick'] = 0
info['begin'] = time.time()
info['completion_time'] = info['begin'] - TICK

while 1:

    set_timing()

    print('hello world')

    #random real world event
    time.sleep(random.random()*TICK_MINIMUM)

    info['tick'] += 1
    info['completion_time'] = time.time()

根据实际情况，你可能会得到长度的刻度:

60,60,62,58,60,60,120,30,30,60,60,60,60,60...etc.

但在60分钟结束时，你会有60个滴答;而且它们中的大多数都将出现在您喜欢的正确偏移时间。

在我的系统中，我得到了< 1/20秒的典型漂移，直到需要纠正。

该方法的优点是具有较好的时钟漂移分辨率;这可能会导致问题，如果你做的事情，比如每tick追加一个项目，你希望每小时追加60个项目。未能考虑漂移可能导致次要指标，如移动平均线，将数据考虑得过于深入过去，从而导致错误的输出。
