RedBeat <https://github.com/sibson/redbeat>
_ is a
Celery Beat Scheduler <http://celery.readthedocs.org/en/latest/userguide/periodic-tasks.html>
_
that stores the scheduled tasks and runtime metadata in Redis <http://redis.io/>
_.
#. Dynamic live task creation and modification, without lengthy downtime #. Externally manage tasks from any language with Redis bindings #. Shared data store; Beat isn't tied to a single drive or machine #. Fast startup even with a large task count #. Prevent accidentally running multiple Beat servers
For more background on the genesis of RedBeat see this blog post <https://blog.heroku.com/redbeat-celery-beat-scheduler>
_
Install with pip:
.. code-block:: console
pip install celery-redbeat
Configure RedBeat settings in your Celery configuration file:
.. code-block:: python
redbeat_redis_url = "redis://localhost:6379/1"
Then specify the scheduler when running Celery Beat:
.. code-block:: console
celery beat -A <celery_app_file_path>.<celery_app_instance_name> -S redbeat.RedBeatScheduler
If using the embedded beat in a worker process (like in development), specify the scheduler like so:
.. code-block:: console
celery worker --beat --scheduler redbeat.RedBeatScheduler ...
RedBeat uses a distributed lock to prevent multiple instances running. To disable this feature, set:
.. code-block:: python
redbeat_lock_key = None
More details available on Read the Docs <https://redbeat.readthedocs.io/en/latest/>

RedBeat is available on GitHub <https://github.com/sibson/redbeat>

Once you have the source you can run the tests with the following commands::
pip install -r requirements-dev.txt
python -m unittest discover tests
You can also quickly fire up a sample Beat instance with::
celery beat --config exampleconf
