Mmmh yes it's tricky, Python can be used for Web Development of course, but as we all know also for penetration testing, for example. The part that let me a bit skeptical is to allow a Python script of which I still didn't see the code but am hearing only a TL;DR from you, to connect to the DB and in addition accessing via SSH to the VPS. Eventually, if your purpose to use screen is to isolate the script, this isn't the way to do it because screen it doesn't isolate anything, instead I'd use Docker or at least virtualenv.My script for updating rates is in python and it get prices from coinpaprika, it connect to db and update rates in dictionary by updating settings -> manual_exchange_rate (id 125) in database, simple and tricky but vps required or shared hosting with ssh access and python installed with screen
Main issue is view updating, not price convert
To be frank, if you are willing to show me the code I'll be glad to do some code review to see how effectively your workaround works, if this is not the case I don't think this discussion can be useful to anyone, we're not here to show muscles but instead to fix some code issues. Do you agree with me?
