I would like to run an “update all data” type method that grabs data from a few services, crunches it, and spits data to another service. I would like to run this twice a day. What is the most Smalltalk/Pharo/Seaside approach to such a thing? I thought about running it from the command line using a cron job, which I would totally like, but the job dies because it tries to run another copy of the same image with Seaside already running. I thought about creating a REST endpoint, and calling it via wget using cron, but I got too bogged down in installing the Seaside REST packages, and running into errors everywhere. Any suggestions?

Just use a process like this (in your run.st file):
[ [ 1 minute wait. Bla sendOlderOutstanding. ] repeat ] forkAt: Processor lowIOPriority named: 'Periodic Sigfox sendOlderOutstanding'. [ [ 5 minutes wait. Bla transferT3SigfoxDownlinks. ] repeat ] forkAt: Processor lowIOPriority named: 'Periodic Sigfox transferT3SigfoxDownlinks'. You could also add an error handler to protect your process from dying when an error occurs in one iteration. > On 18 Mar 2019, at 16:28, sergio ruiz <[hidden email]> wrote: > > I would like to run an “update all data” type method that grabs data from a few services, crunches it, and spits data to another service.

I did this to collect some data and report it daily (by mail, etc.)
and also every 5' to feed other services. What I did was to use a cron task that ran Pharo that called a simple script such as follows: ``` NonInteractiveTranscript stdout install. ProviderDailyNotificator runForTheLastWeek. Smalltalk quitPrimitive. ``` The output was sent to a log file as well. All the logic of whether to retry notifications etc. was handled by the `ProviderDailyNotificator` class. Regards, Esteban A.
