Include celery tasks in a reusable django app without knowing the project name.

readme.md

Allows you to generate the app needed for celery tasks without knowing the main project name and celery config.

Otherwise you need to somehow know the project name to be able to from proj_name.celery import app

a_reusable_celery.py

from __future__ import absolute_import

import os

from celery import Celery
from django.conf import settings

os.environ.setdefault('DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE', settings.SETTINGS_MODULE)

project = '.'.join(settings.SETTINGS_MODULE.split('.')[:-1])
app = Celery(project)
app.config_from_object('django.conf:settings')
app.autodiscover_tasks(settings.INSTALLED_APPS, related_name='tasks')
