A Django
email backend that uses a Celery
queue for out-of-band sending
of the messages.
.. Celery
: http://celeryproject.org/
.. Django
: http://www.djangoproject.org/
.. warning::
This version requires the following versions:
* Python >= 3.7
* Django 2.2, 3.0, 3.1, 3.2
* Celery >= 4.0
To enable django-celery-email
for your project you need to add djcelery_email
to
INSTALLED_APPS
::
INSTALLED_APPS += ("djcelery_email",)
You must then set django-celery-email
as your EMAIL_BACKEND
::
EMAIL_BACKEND = 'djcelery_email.backends.CeleryEmailBackend'
By default django-celery-email
will use Django's builtin SMTP
email backend
for the actual sending of the mail. If you'd like to use another backend, you
may set it in CELERY_EMAIL_BACKEND
just like you would normally have set
EMAIL_BACKEND
before you were using Celery. In fact, the normal installation
procedure will most likely be to get your email working using only Django, then
change EMAIL_BACKEND
to CELERY_EMAIL_BACKEND
, and then add the new
EMAIL_BACKEND
setting from above.
Mass email are sent in chunks of size CELERY_EMAIL_CHUNK_SIZE
(defaults to 10).
If you need to set any of the settings (attributes) you'd normally be able to set on a
Celery Task
_ class had you written it yourself, you may specify them in a dict
in the CELERY_EMAIL_TASK_CONFIG
setting::
CELERY_EMAIL_TASK_CONFIG = {
'queue' : 'email',
'rate_limit' : '50/m', # * CELERY_EMAIL_CHUNK_SIZE (default: 10)
...
}
There are some default settings. Unless you specify otherwise, the equivalent of the following settings will apply::
CELERY_EMAIL_TASK_CONFIG = {
'name': 'djcelery_email_send',
'ignore_result': True,
}
After this setup is complete, and you have a working Celery install, sending email will work exactly like it did before, except that the sending will be handled by your Celery workers::
from django.core import mail
emails = (
('Hey Man', "I'm The Dude! So that's what you call me.", 'dude@aol.com', ['mr@lebowski.com']),
('Dammit Walter', "Let's go bowlin'.", 'dude@aol.com', ['wsobchak@vfw.org']),
)
results = mail.send_mass_mail(emails)
results
will be a list of celery AsyncResult
_ objects that you may ignore, or use to check the
status of the email delivery task, or even wait for it to complete if want. You have to enable a result
backend and set ignore_result
to False
in CELERY_EMAIL_TASK_CONFIG
if you want to use these.
You should also set CELERY_EMAIL_CHUNK_SIZE = 1
in settings if you are concerned about task status
and results.
See the Celery docs
_ for more info.
len(results)
will be the number of emails you attempted to send divided by CELERY_EMAIL_CHUNK_SIZE, and is in no way a reflection on the success or failure
of their delivery.
