celery.app.control — Celery 5.5.2 documentation (original) (raw)

This document describes the current stable version of Celery (5.5). For development docs,go here.

Worker Remote Control Client.

Client for worker remote control commands. Server implementation is in celery.worker.control. There are two types of remote control commands:

• Inspect commands: Does not have side effects, will usually just return some value found in the worker, like the list of currently registered tasks, the list of active tasks, etc. Commands are accessible via Inspect class.
• Control commands: Performs side effects, like adding a new queue to consume from. Commands are accessible via Control class.
