Use the Pypy package "pyremto" to log values to your smartphone, send inputs back to the Python script, and receive downtime alerts if your script stops running. The following use cases are supported: - Downtime Alert: Setup a downtime alert and get notified when your python script stops working / is not executed in the desired frequency. Either receive a push notification or check the status of your script in the app. - Log to your smartphone: Log values from your python script directly to the pyremto app. You can also log datapoints, which are displayed as a graph. - Remote Control: Let your python script ask for inputs after logging some values. Enter your commands in the pyremto app and send them back to your python script. - Job Scheduling: Create a list of jobs, which should be executed on your servers / multiple computers. The job scheduling is done automatically on a job-to-job basis. This maximizes the resource usage without planning the job distribution ahead.
