tklx/celery repository overview

Celery⁠ is an asynchronous task queue/job queue based on distributed message passing. It is focused on real-time operation, but supports scheduling as well. The execution units, called tasks, are executed concurrently on a single or more worker servers using multiprocessing, Eventlet, or gevent. Tasks can execute asynchronously (in the background) or synchronously (wait until ready). Celery is used in production systems to process millions of tasks a day.

⁠Features

• Based on the super slim tklx/base⁠ (Debian GNU/Linux).
• Celery installed directly from Debian.
• Uses tini⁠ for zombie reaping and signal forwarding.
• Includes ENV CELERY_BROKER_URL amqp://guest@rabbit so linking with a RabbitMQ container⁠ works by default.

⁠Usage

⁠Start a celery worker utilizing RabbitMQ as broker

$ docker run --name some-rabbitmq -d tklx/rabbitmq
$ docker run --link some-rabbitmq:rabbit --name some-celery -d tklx/celery
...

### Check the status of the cluster (RabbitMQ)
```console
$ docker run --link some-rabbitmq:rabbit --rm celery python -m celery status

⁠Start a celery worker utilizing Redis as broker

$ docker run --name some-redis -d tklx/redis
$ docker run --link some-redis:redis -e CELERY_BROKER_URL=redis://redis --name some-celery -d tklx/celery
...

### Check the status of the cluster (Redis)
```console
$ docker run --link some-rabbitmq:rabbit -e CELERY_BROKER_URL=redis://redis --rm tklx/celery python -m celery status

⁠Automated builds

The Docker image⁠ is built, tested and pushed by CircleCI⁠ from source hosted on GitHub⁠.
