// Installation and Usage //

Flask-Dramatiq is licensed under BSD-3-Clause. Add flask-dramatiq to your project:

$ poetry add flask-dramatiq

Then use Dramatiq object as a regular Flask extension:

from flask import Flask
from flask_dramatiq import Dramatiq

app = Flask(__name__)
dramatiq = Dramatiq(app)

@dramatiq.actor()
def my_actor():
    ...

@app.route("/")
def myhandler():
    my_actor.send()

Flask-Dramatiq adds two configuration keys:

• DRAMATIQ_BROKER, points to broker class like dramatiq.brokers.rabbitmq.RabbitmqBroker or dramatiq.brokers.redis.RedisBroker.

Now run worker program to consume messages and execute tasks in the background:

$ flask worker --processes=1
