Installation

pip install celery-progress

Usage

Prerequisites

First add celery_progress to your INSTALLED_APPS in settings.py.

Then add the following url config to your main urls.py:

url(r'^celery-progress/', include('celery_progress.urls')),  # the endpoint is configurable

Recording Progress

In your task you should add something like this:

from celery import shared_task
from celery_progress.backend import ProgressRecorder
import time

@shared_task(bind=True)
def my_task(self, seconds):
    progress_recorder = ProgressRecorder(self)
    for i in range(seconds):
        time.sleep(1)
        progress_recorder.set_progress(i + 1, seconds)
    return 'done'

Displaying progress

In the view where you call the task you need to get the task ID like so:

views.py

def progress_view(request):
    result = my_task.delay(10)
    return render(request, 'display_progress.html', context={'task_id': result.task_id})

Then in the page you want to show the progress bar you just do the following.

Add the following HTML wherever you want your progress bar to appear:

display_progress.html

<div class='progress-wrapper'>
  <div id='progress-bar' class='progress-bar' style="background-color: #68a9ef; width: 0%;">&nbsp;</div>
</div>
<div id="progress-bar-message">Waiting for progress to start...</div>

Import the javascript file.

display_progress.html

<script src="{% static 'celery_progress/celery_progress.js' %}"></script>

Initialize the progress bar:

// vanilla JS version
document.addEventListener("DOMContentLoaded", function () {
  var progressUrl = "{% url 'celery_progress:task_status' task_id %}";
  CeleryProgressBar.initProgressBar(progressUrl);
});

or

// JQuery
$(function () {
  var progressUrl = "{% url 'celery_progress:task_status' task_id %}";
  CeleryProgressBar.initProgressBar(progressUrl)
});
