How do I turn my python script into a wiki bot

Hello, a pleasure to meet you all; I have this python script: https://github.com/claeslindhardt/CellFamilyTree which automatically updates the list in List of distinct cell types in the adult human body, how would I go about turning it into a wikibot, so that the list is automatically updated every 6 months without me running it? and is there any changes/updates I should do to my code before I upload it is as a bot?
