Django：celery 任务不使用 .delay() 执行

Question

I'm using code examples from the 'Django 2 by Example' book to build my e-commerce shop. The view works as it should, but the task never gets executed. There are no errors. Page is freezing on "Waiting for localhost...". What I'm doing wrong in the code?

views.py

   import ...
   from .tasks import order_created

        def order_create(request):
            cart = Cart(request)
            if request.method == 'POST':
                form = OrderCreateForm(request.POST)

                if form.is_valid():
                    order = form.save(commit=False)
                    if cart.promo_code:
                        order.promo_code = cart.promo_code
                        order.discount = cart.promo_code.discount
                    order.save()

                    for item in cart:
                        OrderItem.objects.create(order=order,
                                                 book=item['book'],
                                                 price=item['price'],
                                                 quantity=item['quantity'])
                    # clear the cart
                    cart.clear()
                    print("clean cart")
                    # set the order in the session
                    request.session['order_id'] = order.id
                    print("id  - check")
                    # launch asynchronous task
                    order_created.delay(order.id) # here I stuck
                    print("clean cart")
                    # redirect for payment
                    return redirect(reverse('payment:process'))
            else:
                form = OrderCreateForm()
            return render(request,
                          'orders/order/create.html',
                          {'cart': cart, 'form': form})

tasks.py

from celery import task
from django.core.mail import send_mail
from .models import Order


@task
def order_created(order_id):
    """
    Task to send an e-mail notification when an order is 
    successfully created.
    """
    order = Order.objects.get(id=order_id)
    subject = 'Order nr. {}'.format(order.id)
    message = 'Dear {},\n\nYou have successfully placed an order.\
                  Your order id is {}.'.format(order.first_name,
                                               order.id)
    mail_sent = send_mail(subject,
                          message,
                          'archeski.dk@gmail.com',
                          [order.email])
    return mail_sent

I'm using celery==4.2.0 Django==2.0.7 Ubuntu 18.04

UPDATED: Added this two lines of code in celery.py . And freezing has disappear, order page now redirects me for further payment prosedure. But the task order_created still not running.

  app.conf.broker_url = 'redis://localhost:6379/1'
    # app.conf.broker_transport_options = {'visibility_timeout': 3600}  # 1 hour.
    app.config_from_object('django.conf:settings', namespace='CELERY')

$ redis-cli MONITOR

outputs this:

Answer 1

Can you double-check that you imported the Celery app in your __init__.py file like the getting started guide mentions? https://docs.celeryproject.org/en/latest/django/first-steps-with-django.html

I was having a similar issue where everything else looked correct, but the task was hanging when I used .delay()

Adding the import immediately fixed the problem.

Answer 2

maybe this helps :

you have to update project conf folder init .py file:

from __future__ import absolute_import

# This will make sure the app is always imported when
# Django starts so that shared_task will use this app.
from .celery import app as celery_app  

Answer 3

I am studying celery too and started two days ago. My experience is that, you need to independently deploy your celery well before you integrate it into your web application.

After the visit to the celery doc page I was able to successfully start my celery application.

Start from the simplest demo.
