python call a procedure at the specified time

[Nitin Pawar]

I think to do so either you will need to schedule a cron or write a daemon
process which will run continuously.
Assuming that its running only once a day or say timely manner daemon will
be a  costly affair for system resources

To schedule crons for python, this might be useful (using yaml)

Thanks,
