django-tasks-local-db 0.2.0

Django Tasks backend combining in-process thread pool execution with database persistence

django-tasks-local-db

A Django Tasks backend that combines in-process thread pool execution with database persistence. Tasks run in your web process without a separate worker, while results are durably stored in the database.

This project is a remix of django-tasks-local and django-tasks-db. It takes the in-process executor approach from django-tasks-local and adds DB-backed result storage from django-tasks-db.

How it works

• enqueue() writes a task row to the database, then submits it to an in-process thread pool
• On completion, the DB row is updated with the result or error
• On restart, orphaned tasks are recovered from the database and resubmitted

Installation

pip install django-tasks-local-db

Configuration

INSTALLED_APPS = [
    # ...
    "django_tasks_local_db",
]

TASKS = {
    "default": {
        "BACKEND": "django_tasks_local_db.LocalDBBackend",
        "OPTIONS": {
            "MAX_WORKERS": 4,
        },
    }
}

Then run migrations:

python manage.py migrate django_tasks_local_db
