tenant-schemas-celery

Celery application implementation that allows celery tasks to cooperate with multi-tenancy provided by django-tenant-schemas and django-tenants packages.

This project might not seem frequently updated, but it just has all the functionality needed. Issues and questions are answered quickly.

Installation

   $ pip install tenant-schemas-celery
   $ pip install django-tenants

Usage

   import os
   os.environ.setdefault('DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE', 'app.settings')

   from django.conf import settings

   from tenant_schemas_celery.app import CeleryApp as TenantAwareCeleryApp

   app = TenantAwareCeleryApp()
   app.config_from_object('django.conf:settings')
   app.autodiscover_tasks(lambda: settings.INSTALLED_APPS)

This assumes a fresh Celery 5.2.0 application. For previous versions, the key is to create a new CeleryApp instance that will be used to access task decorator from.

   from celery import shared_task
   from django.db import connection
   from myproject.celery import app
   from tenant_schemas_celery.task import TenantTask

   @app.task
   def my_task():
      print(connection.schema_name)

   @shared_task(base=TenantTask, bind=True)
   def my_shared_task():
      print("foo")
    $ celery worker -A myproject.celery
   from myproject.tasks import my_task
   my_task.delay()

The TenantTask class transparently inserts current connection's schema into the task's kwargs. The schema name is then popped from the task's kwargs in task_prerun signal handler, and the connection's schema is changed accordingly.

Multiple databases support

New in 2.0.0.

Inside your celery tasks you might be working with multiple databases. You might want to change the schema for all of the connections, or just a subset of them.

You can now use the CELERY_TASK_TENANT_CACHE_SECONDS django setting, or TASK_TENANT_CACHE_SECONDS celery setting, or the tenant_databases attribute of the TenantTask to a list of database names (the key in the settings.DATABASES dictionary).

If not set, the settings defaults to ["default"].

Tenant objects cache

New in 0.3.0.

Every time a celery task is executed, the tenant object of the connection object is being refetched. For some use cases, this can introduce significant performance hit.

In such scenarios, you can pass tenant_cache_seconds argument to the @app.task() decorator. This will cause the tenant objects to be cached for given period of time. 0 turns this off. You can also enable cache globally by setting celery's TASK_TENANT_CACHE_SECONDS (app-specific, usually it's CELERY_TASK_TENANT_CACHE_SECONDS).

@app.task(tenant_cache_seconds=30)
def some_task():
    ...

Celery beat integration

In order to run celery beat tasks in a multi-tenant environment, you've got two options:

i.e: Let's say that you would like to run a reset_remaining_jobs tasks periodically, for every tenant that you have.

Dispatcher task pattern

You can schedule one dispatcher task that will iterate over all schemas and send that task within the schema's context:

from django_tenants.utils import get_tenant_model, tenant_context
from django_tenant_schemas.utils import get_tenant_model, tenant_context

@app.task
def reset_remaining_jobs_in_all_schemas():
    for tenant in get_tenant_model().objects.exclude(schema_name='public'):
        with tenant_context(tenant):
            reset_remaining_jobs_in_schema.delay()

@app.task
def reset_remaining_jobs_in_schema():
    <do some logic>

The reset_remaining_jobs_in_all_schemas task (called the dispatch task) should be registered in your celery beat schedule. The reset_remaining_jobs_in_schema task should be called from the dispatch task.

That way you have full control over which schemas the task should be scheduled in.

Custom scheduler

If you are using the standard Scheduler or PersistentScheduler classes provided by celery, you can transition to using this package's TenantAwareScheduler or TenantAwarePersistentScheduler classes. You should then specify the scheduler you want to use in the celery beat config or your invocation to beat. i.e:

celery -A proj beat --scheduler=tenant_schemas_celery.scheduler.TenantAwareScheduler

Caveats

app.conf.beat_schedule = {
    "my-task": {
        "task": "myapp.tasks.my_task",
        "schedule": schedules.crontab(minute="*/5"),
        "tenant_schemas": ["public"]
    }
}

Compatibility changes

The >=3.0 series drop support for Python 3.7.

The >=2.1 series drop support for tenant-schemas. It hasn't been maintainted for a long time.

The 2.x series support Python>=3.7.

The 1.x series support Python>=3.6. Python 3.6 reached EOL 2021-12.

The 0.x series are the last one to support Python<3.6.
