django-todo

We can run a cron job to send email to user's email when the date set on the schedule is equal to today. It will run the schedule_reminder management command which will send the emails using mailgun.

Example:

0 0 * * * cd /home/xamfy/django/todo-app; /home/xamfy/django/todo-app/venv/bin/python manage.py schedule_reminder

Example management command code:

class Command(BaseCommand):
    def handle(self, **options):
        today = datetime.datetime.now().date()
        for schedule in Schedule.objects.filter(date=today, completed=False):
            print(schedule.user.email)
            subject = 'Schedule reminder'
            body = 'Hey, please complete your schedule ' + schedule.name
            send_mail(subject, body, '[email protected]',
                      [schedule.user.email])
