celery-redundant-scheduler

Celery beat scheduler providing ability to run multiple celerybeat instances.

Problem

Production level deployment requires redundancy and fault-tolerance environment. Unfortunately Celery doesn't provide periodic tasks scheduling redundancy out of the box. Running multiple celerybeat instances results multiple scheduled tasks queuing. This package provides synchronized scheduler class with failover support. By default redis backend used, but developers are free too use their own based on package primitives.

Installation

pip install celery-redundant-scheduler
pip install git+https://github.com/MnogoByte/celery-redundant-scheduler.git

Usage

1. Setup scheduler synchronization backend:

    CELERYBEAT_REDUNDANT_BACKEND_OPTIONS = {
        'HOST': 'localhost',
        'PORT': 6379,
        'DB': 0,
        'PASSWORD': 'secret'
    }
   

2. Provide --scheduler=celery_redundant_scheduler:RedundantScheduler option running your worker or beat instance.

Settings

• CELERYBEAT_REDUNDANT_BACKEND_OPTIONS - redis connection options.
• CELERYBEAT_REDUNDANT_REDIS_KEYPREFIX - prefix for redis keys. Default is redundant-scheduler.
• CELERYBEAT_REDUNDANT_REDIS_LOCK_EXPIRES - redis lock timeout. Default is 60 seconds.

Using custom scheduler synchronization backend

1. Define subclass of celery_redundant_scheduler.backends.base:BaseBackend.
2. Override back-end interaction methods.
3. Provide backend options with CELERYBEAT_REDUNDANT_BACKEND_OPTIONS
4. Claim using your subclass providing CELERYBEAT_REDUNDANT_BACKEND setting or environment variable.
