Call the follow code
tasks.update_address_location.apply_async((address_obj.id), countdown = 10)
However the task executes immediately on the queue. It workings so must other possibilities I've rules out. Thought someone might have an answer
capp = Celery('async', backend='redis://localhost:6379/0',
broker='redis://localhost:6379/0', include=['app.async.tasks'])
# Optional configuration, see the application user guide.
capp.config_from_object(celeryconfig)
capp.conf.update(
CELERY_TASK_RESULT_EXPIRES=3600,
)
if __name__ == '__main__':
capp.start()
and celery is called as such:
celery multi stop worker -A app.async.celery_app:capp --beat --loglevel=debug --pidfile=celery.pid --logfile=celery.log
The output in the celery.log is consistent and successful, but there no delay in there.
