i have a shell script that just calls a python file in loop
eg:



for i in $(seq $start_index $end_index)
do
python my_script.py
done


The python process halts when it is not able to generate random numbers in certain ranges.



i am trying to restart the script when it has not printed out to the console for say 30 seconds, else it can keep running.



This is not a cron job which needs to necessarily restart in a fixed interval.



However, a watchdog kind of job that can track would be ideal; but i did not find anything that tracks when was the last output printed.



We could also direct the output from script.sh > log.txt and check for when was the file last modified, but didn't find an elegant way of doing that.



Any help/pointers would be appreciated.
