.. adminition:: This library is no longer necessary

Since Celery 3.1 you can now use Celery with Django directly,
so new users should not be using this library for integration.

Django-celery may still be used for the database result backend,
and the Django periodic task admin, but these are optional features.

See the new Django tutorial at:

https://docs.celeryproject.org/en/latest/django/first-steps-with-django.html

The old README follows below.

Using django-celery
===================

To enable ``django-celery`` for your project you need to add ``djcelery`` to
``INSTALLED_APPS``::

    INSTALLED_APPS += ("djcelery", )

then add the following lines to your ``settings.py``::

    import djcelery
    djcelery.setup_loader()

Everything works the same as described in the `Celery User Manual`_, except you
need to invoke the programs through ``manage.py``:

=====================================  =====================================
**Program**                            **Replace with**
=====================================  =====================================
``celery``                             ``python manage.py celery``
``celery worker``                      ``python manage.py celery worker``
``celery beat``                        ``python manage.py celery beat``
``celery ...``                         ``python manage.py celery ...``
=====================================  =====================================

The other main difference is that configuration values are stored in
your Django projects' ``settings.py`` module rather than in
``celeryconfig.py``.

If you're trying celery for the first time you should start by reading
`Getting started with django-celery`_

Special note for mod_wsgi users
-------------------------------

If you're using ``mod_wsgi`` to deploy your Django application you need to
include the following in your ``.wsgi`` module::

    import djcelery
    djcelery.setup_loader()

Documentation
=============

The `Celery User Manual`_ contains user guides, tutorials and an API
reference. Also the `django-celery documentation`_, contains information
about the Django integration.

.. _`django-celery documentation`: http://django-celery.readthedocs.org/
.. _`Celery User Manual`: http://docs.celeryproject.org/
.. _`Getting started with django-celery`:
   http://docs.celeryproject.org/en/latest/django/first-steps-with-django.html

Installation
=============

You can install ``django-celery`` either via the Python Package Index (PyPI)
or from source.

To install using ``pip``,::

    $ pip install django-celery

To install using ``easy_install``,::

    $ easy_install django-celery

You will then want to create the necessary tables. If you are using south_
for schema migrations, you'll want to::

    $ python manage.py migrate djcelery

For those who are not using south, a normal ``syncdb`` will work::

    $ python manage.py syncdb

.. _south: http://pypi.python.org/pypi/South/

Downloading and installing from source
--------------------------------------

Download the latest version of ``django-celery`` from
http://pypi.python.org/pypi/django-celery/

You can install it by doing the following,::

    $ tar xvfz django-celery-0.0.0.tar.gz
    $ cd django-celery-0.0.0
    # python setup.py install # as root

Using the development version
------------------------------

You can clone the git repository by doing the following::

    $ git clone git://github.com/celery/django-celery.git
