redis_task_dags

A simple runner for task DAGs based on Redis.

Currently, a very early work in progress :) I'm just fiddling with the idea. Maybe it'll go into rq, maybe it'll be a separate project.

I want to leverage as much of the built-in Redis functionality, to have as little as possible Python code. Maybe that way, this can be a base for task DAGs implementation in many languages.

I have different issues with the current task runners for Python:

  • rq: doesn't support DAGs of tasks
  • celery: buggy, convoluted
  • Airflow - really unflexible, needlessly heavyweight
