-  Choose a message `broker <https://django-q.readthedocs.org/en/latest/brokers.html>`__ , configure and install the appropriate client library.

Read the full documentation at `https://django-q.readthedocs.org <https://django-q.readthedocs.org>`__


Configuration
~~~~~~~~~~~~~

All configuration settings are optional. e.g:

.. code:: python

    # settings.py example
    Q_CLUSTER = {
        'name': 'myproject',
        'workers': 8,
        'recycle': 500,
        'timeout': 60,
        'compress': True,
        'cpu_affinity': 1,
        'save_limit': 250,
        'queue_limit': 500,
        'label': 'Django Q',
        'redis': {
            'host': '127.0.0.1',
            'port': 6379,
            'db': 0, }
    }

For full configuration options, see the `configuration documentation <https://django-q.readthedocs.org/en/latest/configure.html>`__.

Management Commands
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Start a cluster with::

    $ python manage.py qcluster

Monitor your clusters with::

    $ python manage.py qmonitor

Monitor your clusters' memory usage with::

    $ python manage.py qmemory

Check overall statistics with::

    $ python manage.py qinfo

Creating Tasks
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Use `async_task` from your code to quickly offload tasks:

.. code:: python

    from django_q.tasks import async_task, result

    # create the task
    async_task('math.copysign', 2, -2)

    # or with a reference
    import math.copysign

    task_id = async_task(copysign, 2, -2)

    # get the result
    task_result = result(task_id)

    # result returns None if the task has not been executed yet
    # you can wait for it
    task_result = result(task_id, 200)

    # but in most cases you will want to use a hook:

    async_task('math.modf', 2.5, hook='hooks.print_result')

    # hooks.py
    def print_result(task):
        print(task.result)

For more info see `Tasks <https://django-q.readthedocs.org/en/latest/tasks.html>`__


Schedule
~~~~~~~~

Schedules are regular Django models. You can manage them through the
Admin page or directly from your code:

.. code:: python

    # Use the schedule function
    from django_q.tasks import schedule

    schedule('math.copysign',
             2, -2,
             hook='hooks.print_result',
             schedule_type=Schedule.DAILY)

    # Or create the object directly
    from django_q.models import Schedule

    Schedule.objects.create(func='math.copysign',
                            hook='hooks.print_result',
                            args='2,-2',
                            schedule_type=Schedule.DAILY
                            )

    # Run a task every 5 minutes, starting at 6 today
    # for 2 hours
    import arrow

    schedule('math.hypot',
             3, 4,
             schedule_type=Schedule.MINUTES,
             minutes=5,
             repeats=24,
             next_run=arrow.utcnow().replace(hour=18, minute=0))

    # Use a cron expression
    schedule('math.hypot',
             3, 4,
             schedule_type=Schedule.CRON,
             cron = '0 22 * * 1-5')

For more info check the `Schedules <https://django-q.readthedocs.org/en/latest/schedules.html>`__ documentation.


Testing
~~~~~~~

To run the tests you will need the following in addition to install requirements:

* `py.test <http://pytest.org/latest/>`__
* `pytest-django <https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-django>`__
* Disque from https://github.com/antirez/disque.git
* Redis
* MongoDB

Or you can use the included Docker Compose file.

The following commands can be used to run the tests:

.. code:: bash

    # Create virtual environment
    python -m venv venv

    # Install requirements
    venv/bin/pip install -r requirements.txt

    # Install test dependencies
    venv/bin/pip install pytest pytest-django django-redis bson pymongo django hiredis croniter

    # Install django-q
    venv/bin/python setup.py develop

    # Run required services (you need to have docker-compose installed)
    docker-compose -f test-services-docker-compose.yaml up -d

    # Run tests
    venv/bin/pytest

    # Stop the services required by tests (when you no longer plan to run tests)
    docker-compose -f test-services-docker-compose.yaml down
