Schedule Repeating Actions

Every now and then you reach the point where you need some part of your code to be called continuously at a certain interval. May it be every second, 24 hours or two months.

For this, MVI contain the call_every decorator that can be used as such

from mvi import service

@service.call_every(seconds=60)
def heartbeat():
    # do something every minute
    pass

if __name__ == '__main__':
    service.run()

By using this decorator, MVI will take care of calling your decorated fuction at the specified interval. Note that the decorated function are not allowed to take any arguments. functools.partial may be used to adhere to this requirement.
