celerybeat-redis 0.0.4

Github page: https://github.com/jayklx/celerybeatredis

It’s modified from celerybeat-mongo (https://github.com/zakird/celerybeat-mongo)

This is a Celery Beat Scheduler (http://celery.readthedocs.org/en/latest/userguide/periodic-tasks.html) that stores both the schedules themselves and their status information in a backend Redis database. It can be installed by installing the celerybeat-redis Python egg:

# pip install celerybeat-redis

And specifying the scheduler when running Celery Beat, e.g.:

$ celery beat -S celerybeatredis.schedulers.RedisScheduler

Settings for the scheduler are defined in your celery configuration file similar to how other aspects of Celery are configured:

CELERY_REDIS_SCHEDULER_URL = "redis://localhost:6379/1"
CELERY_REDIS_SCHEDULER_KEY_PREFIX = 'tasks:meta:'

You mush make these two value configured. CELERY_REDIS_SCHEDULER_KEY_PREFIX is used to generate keys in redis. The key was like:

tasks:meta:task-name-here:sha1-hash-value
tasks:meta:test-fib-every-3s:efff8ee06703c4cffad73834154a609dab0e1161

Schedules can be manipulated in the Redis database through direct database manipulation. There exist two types of schedules, interval and crontab. crontab are not much tested yet.

Interval:

{
    "_id" : ObjectId("533c5b29b45a2092bffceb13"),
    "name" : "interval test schedule",
    "task" : "task-name-goes-here",
    "enabled" : true,
    "interval" : {
        "every" : 5,
        "period" : "minutes"
    },
    "args" : [
        "param1",
        "param2"
    ],
    "kwargs" : {
        "max_targets" : 100
    },
    "total_run_count" : 5,
    "last_run_at" : ISODate("2014-04-03T19:19:22.666+17:00")
}

The example from Celery User Guide::Periodic Tasks.

{
    CELERYBEAT_SCHEDULE = {
        'interval-test-schedule': {
            'task': 'tasks.add',
            'schedule': timedelta(seconds=30),
            'args': (param1, param2)
        },
    }
}

Becomes the following:

{
    "name" : "interval test schedule",
    "task" : "task.add",
    "enabled" : true,
    "interval" : {
        "every" : 30,
        "period" : "seconds",
    },
    "args" : [
        "param1",
        "param2"
    ],
    "kwargs" : {
        "max_targets" : 100
    }
    "total_run_count": 5,
        "last_run_at" : {
            "__type__", "datetime",
            "year": 2014,
            "month": 8,
            "day": 30,
            "hour": 8,
            "minute": 10,
            "second": 6,
            "microsecond": 667
        }
}

The following fields are required: name, task, crontab || interval, enabled when defining new tasks. total_run_count and last_run_at are maintained by the scheduler and should not be externally manipulated.

WARNING: crontab feature was not well tested. Bugs will be fixed later.

The example from Celery User Guide::Periodic Tasks. (see: http://docs.celeryproject.org/en/latest/userguide/periodic-tasks.html#crontab-schedules):

{

        CELERYBEAT_SCHEDULE = {
            # Executes every Monday morning at 7:30 A.M
            'add-every-monday-morning': {
                'task': 'tasks.add',
                'schedule': crontab(hour=7, minute=30, day_of_week=1),
                'args': (16, 16),
            },
        }
}

Becomes:

{
    "_id" : ObjectId("53a91dfd455d1c1a4345fb59"),
    "name" : "add-every-monday-morning",
    "task" : "tasks.add",
    "enabled" : true,
    "crontab" : {
        "minute" : "30",
        "hour" : "7",
        "day_of_week" : "1",
        "day_of_month" : "*",
        "month_of_year" : "*"
    },
    "args" : [
        "16",
        "16"
    ],
    "kwargs" : {},
    "total_run_count" : 1,
    "last_run_at" : {
        "__type__", "datetime",
        "year": 2014,
        "month": 8,
        "day": 30,
        "hour": 8,
        "minute": 10,
        "second": 6,
        "microsecond": 667
    }
}
