something like cron (timer) in gevent

It depends how accurately you want your job to be scheduled. There are a couple of mechanisms:

This blog has a neat trick for using gevent.spawn_later to create a timer:

def schedule(delay, func, *args, **kw_args):
    gevent.spawn_later(0, func, *args, **kw_args)
    gevent.spawn_later(delay, schedule, delay, func, *args, **kw_args)

Or of course you can simply sleep in a loop which is probably more readable:

def run_regularly(self, function, interval, *args, **kwargs):
    while True:
        gevent.sleep(interval)
        function(*args, **kwargs)

However both of these will drift over time, particularly if your function takes time to complete relative to the interval. You can compensate by adjusting the sleep interval by the time the function takes to execute:

def run_regularly(self, function, interval, *args, **kwargs):
    while True:
        before = time.time()
        function(*args, **kwargs)

        duration = time.time() - before
        if duration < interval:
            gevent.sleep(interval-duration)
        else:
            warning("function %s duration exceeded %f interval (took %f)" % (
                function.__name__, interval, duration))

This will still drift, just not quite as much...

On the top of my head, you can use gevent.sleep in a loop:

import gevent
import gevent.monkey

gevent.monkey.patch_all()

INTERVAL = 10

def callback():
    # do something
    print "!"

def loop():
    while True:
        gevent.sleep(INTERVAL)
        callback()

gevent.Greenlet.spawn(loop)

Of course, you may put this code in a nice API such as core.timer. But I'll let all the fun for you :)
