Simple mutli-threaded scheduler using sched - stuck

[Mzarour]

Thanks Larz60+ but looking for a simple (i'm new to python) solution which involves the sched library

Here is my attempt so far. My problem is that as soon as scheduler events complete, nothing else runs

import sched
import threading
import time

scheduler = sched.scheduler(time.time, time.sleep)

# Set up a global to be modified by the threads
counter = 0


def increment_counter(name):
    global counter
    print('EVENT:', time.time(), name)
    counter += 1
    print('NOW:', counter)


print('START:', time.time())
e1 = scheduler.enter(5, 1, increment_counter, ('Liverpool match on TV',))
e2 = scheduler.enter(8, 1, increment_counter, ('Take the rubbish bin out',))

def worker():
    print("running worker")
    scheduler.run

# Start a thread to run the events
t = threading.Thread(target=worker, args=())
t.start()

# Back in the main thread, cancel the first scheduled event.
# scheduler.cancel(e1)

while True:
    print("1. Schedule an event")
    print("2. View all scheduled events")
    print("3. Cancel all")
    print("4. Exit")

    choice = int(input("enter option >> "))

    if choice == 1:
        print("Scheduling a new event...")
        e1 = scheduler.enter(3, 1, increment_counter, ('Some event in the future, remind me!',))
    if choice == 2:
        print("Queue status...")
        print(scheduler.queue)
    if choice == 3:
        print("Cancelling all events...")
        for ev in scheduler.queue:
            scheduler.cancel(ev)
    if choice == 4:
        print("Exiting..")
        break

print('FINAL:', counter)
