How to add another task?

[Makada]

Hi,

i have to code below working just fine, but i dont knnow how to add the same task (with other .dat file) with a 10 minute interval within this code.


with the kindest regards.

import time
import schedule    
#starttime=time.time()
   
def task():  
   
#Input_file: "C:\\Campbellsci\\LoggerNet\\CR1000_Table1.dat"
#Output_file: "C:\\Users\\Makada\\Desktop\\CR1000_Table1 - kopie.dat"
   
 while True:
    """ Not to append duplicate data to output file"""
    existingLines = set(line.strip() for line in open("C:\\Users\\Makada\\Desktop\\CR1000_Mburg_Data_ONEMIN.dat"))
    outfile = open("C:\\Users\\Makada\\Desktop\\CR1000_Mburg_Data_ONEMIN.dat", "a+")
    for content in open("C:\\Campbellsci\\LoggerNet\\CR1000_Mburg_Data_ONEMIN.dat", "r"):
        if content.strip() not in existingLines: # to void duplicate lines
            outfile.write(content)
            existingLines.add(content)
    outfile.close()
   
schedule.every().minute.at(":01").do(task)
while True:
    schedule.run_pending()
    time.sleep(1)
refresh()

Can use threading to start two task,so they do not block each other.
Example.

import time, os
import schedule
import threading

def task_1():
    print('Task 1 start')

def task_2():
    print('Task 2 start')

def run_threaded(job_func):
    job_thread = threading.Thread(target=job_func)
    job_thread.start()

if __name__ == '__main__':
    schedule.every(10).seconds.do(run_threaded, task_1)
    schedule.every(20).seconds.do(run_threaded, task_2)
    while True:
        schedule.run_pending()
        time.sleep(1)

If need to check that first that task-1 has done something then start task-2,look at this Thread
So this do check that a process is running if not start it,can be done similar in same way to check a file or something else in task-1(then start schedule for task-2) .
