Cartridge to Expose Celery as a Daemon on OpenShift.

Status

This work on unscaled applications but doesn't work as a gearin a scaled application. Further development can combine this with a python cartridge so it can operate in it's own gears.

Configuration

• OPENSHIFT_CELERY_CONFIG This is the name of your config file, which by default is $OPENSHIFT_CELERY_DIR/conf.d/celeryconfig.py but you can copy this to $OPENSHIFT_DATA_DIR/config/celeryconfig.py and edit your own copy.

To install

rhc cartridge-add https://raw.github.com/wassname/openshift-celery-cartridge/master/metadata/manifest.yml -a `<appname>`

Any log output will be generated to ${OPENSHIFT_HOMEDIR}logs/celery_log.txt and will be viewable with the rhc tail "appname" command

This was tested using:

redis==2.10.3
