Schedule a Python script with GitHub Actions

Watch the video tutorial:

Alt text

This example shows how to run a Python script as cron job with GitHub Actions. It calls an API once a week (could be any schedule you want), logs the response in status.log, and automatically pushes the changes to this repo.

  • Implement your script in main.py
  • Inspect and configure cron job in GitHub Action .github/workflows/actions.yml
  • It can install and use third party packages from requirements.txt
  • Secret environment variables can be used. Set secrets in Settings/Secrets/Actions -> 'New repository secret'. Use the same secret name inside actions.yml and main.py
