I have tried to run nohup watch -n 5 python3 main.py & but it is not working anymore. Is there any way to run watch -n 5 python3 main.py & command in background?

1 Answer

You could just run it in a tmux or screen session and leave it there. Or write a small upstart script fx

description "main"
author ""
start on filesystem and net-device-up IFACE!=lo
exec python3 main.py

and let the main.py handle the iteration.
