Traceback (most recent call last): File "times.py", line 1, in <module> import time File "/home/mickey/time.py", line 8, in <module> t = time.localtime(time.time())
AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'localtime'
Python is having problems of execute this line.
t = time.localtime(time.time())
- This is getting offtopic
- You need to at least send us the script you're using
- There is no way that that line of code doesn't work if you did
`import time` first 4) You may want to check and IRC channel such as irc://freenode.net/fedora
Also, there are several alarm apps already in Fedora, it doesn't seem like you're trying to learn Python, so might be best to just use an already existing app.
I told you in the beginning I know nothing about Python. I'm getting answers that assume, I know what your talking about, I don't, I just have a script that I'm asking how it works. What are the other scripts that are already in Fedora.
I know nothing about python either..... But the comments of others has got me to ....
import time import os
not_executed = 1
while(not_executed): dt = list(time.localtime(time.time())) hour = dt[3] minute = dt[4] if hour == 5 and minute == 45: os.popen2("open /Users/jun/shout.mp3") not_executed = 0
I added a "tab" to Lines 7 and 8 as well as a closing ) on Line 7. Note that blank lines are counted. Line 11 also has a tab added. Hope that helps...and I hope my formatting survives.
#!/usr/bin/env python
import time import os
not_executed = 1
while (not_executed): dt = list(time.localtime(time.time())) hour = dt[3] minute = dt[4] if hour == 22 and minute == 58: os.spawnv (os.P_WAIT, "/usr/bin/mpg123", ["mpg123", "/home/mp3/Abba/Gold/queen.mp3"] ) not_executed = 0
