I tried to use Celery for something extremely trivial (granted, 5+ years ago). It was so badly documented and failed to do basic things I would expect from a task queue (like progress reporting) I have no idea why it was and still is popular.
- languagehacker 1y agoJust because you couldn't figure it out doesn't mean the capability wasn't there. More than ten years ago at this point I was running a massively scaled Celery + RabbitMQ + Redis deployment with excellent off-the-shelf reporting using Flower.
- integralid 1y agoI'm going to back GP, eight years ago my team developed a system that was basically an async, scheduled, async task queue, we used celery, and it was so buggy and so troublesome that at some point we switched to a hastily hacked own solution and it worked better. It's entirely likely that we did something wrong and misused celery. But if many people have problems with using a system correctly then it's also something worth considering.
