Question

Any recent updates on running Celery w/ Redis on App Platform?

I’ve been scouring the internet for tips to finally get this to work. Burning way too much time on something that should be simpler. Seen several different messages about it, but they seem to be fairly old. Like this one:

Best Way to Setyp Celery on DigitalOcean App Platform

Is there something new out there to get this to work?

I’m not using a Dockerfile for my app, just the straight Django app like DO’s example here: https://docs.digitalocean.com/tutorials/app-deploy-django-app/

I tried setting up a worker, but documentation on this is scarce so it never can connect or is denied.

What am I missing? Would love to use app platform but starting to think otherwise.

Hi,

You can integrate this easily by just adding redis db and you can customize your build commands or you can add custom functions. example custom runcommand:

daphne -b 0.0.0.0 -p 8080 config.asgi:application

and you have adding redis by adding redis db and then:

rediss://default:YOUR_PASSWORD_HERE@fs-dev-redis-do-user-xxxx-0.b.db.ondigitalocean.com:25061

if you provide more details of your project i can help you with more specific answers :)

+1 but not so much for celery, but for rq.
