Tornado and Celery?

[Dan Stromberg]

Hi folks

What's the best way, with Tornado coroutines, to call a celery task and get the result back into the Tornado code?

I saw this:

http://stackoverflow.com/questions/8202282/tornado-celery-integration-hacks

Is one of these a good way to go?

Is there a best practice?

Thanks!

Depends which of the examples you are looking at, as from my quick look they appearing kind of dated.

Depending what version of Tornado and Python you are running, mostly likely there is newer caller styles that you can look at.

Stop by the Tornado.org latest documents and look at the sample code Ben has in there as it may give you more ideas.

If you are on Python3.5 you can also look at the Async await call styles http://www.tornadoweb.org/en/stable/guide/coroutines.html#python-3-5-async-and-await

Beware as there is lots and lots of old sample code floating about on SO and Gist so keep an eye on when it created as lots of new subtle call adjustments have been added in last few years and that old stuff can send you down the rabbits’s hole needlessly.

I'm on Python 2.7 (sigh), and Tornado 4.3.

Going to tornado.org gives me a generic IIS web page.  :-S

That's something to look forward to.

Any suggestions?  Googling sounds fraught in this case.
