How to get next celery task_id or how to get task id from task itself (Flask) or how to set custom id for task?

Question

I have some celery in my flask app:

# Initialize Celery
celery = Celery("DockerApp", broker=config['CELERY_BROKER_URL'])
celery.conf.update(config)

And I have task:

@celery.task
def some_task(data):
    some_task.request.id #not working
    #my task code goes here

I need id of that task within task itself or I need to set that id my self. Can somebody help?

When I call task:

result = some_task.delay(data)
print result.id #this is correct

That gives me correct result.

Answer 1

You can also access the task's request inside the task with:

@celery.task(bind=True)
def some_task(self, data):
    print self.request.id

Answer 2

I got this with:

from celery import current_task #in task definition
print current_task.request.id

Thanks anyway.
