How to perform a function at the same time in Django?

Question

How to perform a function at the same time in Django?

The task following: to perform the function in views at the same time - say, every day at 12:00.
Found this option with Timer

import datetime as dt

def print_text():
print("Hi!")
next day = dt.datetime.now() + dt.timedelta(days=1)
dateString = next day.strftime('%d-%m-%Y') + "12-00-00"
in the mining = next day.strptime(dateString,'%d-%m-%Y %H-%M-%S')
delay = (in the mining - dt.datetime.now()).total_seconds()
Timer(delay, print_text, ()).start()

But whether it will even continue to count down, if you updated the page, and accordingly, there will be repeated calls to a timer function?
Please help to understand.

Code web applications in Django and many other frameworks is performed only in response to a http request from the user and ends immediately after it returns the response. If the code does not return a response within a few seconds, it is forcibly terminated by the server. So even to run your code with a timer normally not work.

The easiest way to run background tasks in Django is to write your own management command and call it cron ohms. More advanced and functional way is to use some mechanism for asynchronous execution of tasks, like Celery.

And cron poveshat not tried? He just need to run scripts on a timer.

I think you are on the side stepped up to the task. Kron to start jankowska things can or using Celery or via managers. Or even just a Python file to call, and in theit function via __main__
