I am really new to back end stuff like functions etc .. so not sure if it's possible to run python etc scripts with edge functions

Basically I am trying to fetch data every 15 misn and store it in postgres database .. so is edge functions right for this purpose?

I can also use dart instead of python if necessary but from website I think only typescript is allowed?

Thinking out loud and perhaps not very helpful though I may as well post now:

 I was thinking you could enable the database extension `pg_cron` 

Unfortunately we can't use python with the postgres db in superbase as  `plpythonu` as 

> PL/Python is only available as an “untrusted” language

Though you can install the `http` and create a `rpc` / `plpgsql` function that will fetch the data assuming its http data!

I am fetching data from rss feed which is http ig.. so in ur opinion whats the best solution

anyways with python I am using stuff like beautiful soup etc and was thinking to save data as rows in database every 15 mins.. so should I just buy a vps and host the python script there?

Perhaps this is best for now.
