Create a virtual environment and install the dependencies:
$ python -m venv venv
$ source env/bin/activate
$ pip install -r requirements.txt
Start redis and rabbitmq services with docker-compose
:
docker-compose up -d
Verify that the services are up and running:
$ docker ps
# Excepted output

Spin up a new terminal and start the celery worker:
$ celery -A tasks worker -l info --pool=solo
Send a task to celery worker to verify that it's working as excepted:
Open a new terminal and get inside python interactive shell, import say_hello
function from tasks.py
and then call it with delay()
$ python
>>> from tasks import say_hello
>>> say_hello.delay("Valon")
<AsyncResult: 5711efdc-17c7-4f02-bfba-d193c3d28c42>
And in the celery terminal that we started the worker before we should except a result similar to:
INFO/MainProcess] Received task: tasks.say_hello[5711efdc-17c7-4f02-bfba-d193c3d28c42]
INFO/MainProcess] Task tasks.say_hello[5711efdc-17c7-4f02-bfba-d193c3d28c42] succeeded in 5.01600000000326s: 'Hello Valon'
Just expand the usage of the celery, define your tasks and keep doing amazing stuff :)
