I try to start a Celery worker server from a command line:
celery -A tasks worker --loglevel=info
The code in tasks.py:
import os
os.environ[ 'DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE' ] = "proj.settings"
from celery import task
@task()
def add_photos_task( lad_id ):
...
I get the next error:
Traceback (most recent call last):

AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'celery'
Does anybody know why the 'celery' attribute cannot be found? Thank you for help.
The operating system is Linux Debian 5.
Edit. May be the clue. Could anyone explain me the next comment to a function (why we must be sure that it finds modules in the current directory)?
# from celery/utils/imports.py
def import_from_cwd(module, imp=None, package=None):
"""Import module, but make sure it finds modules
located in the current directory.
Modules located in the current directory has
precedence over modules located in `sys.path`.
"""
if imp is None:
imp = importlib.import_module
with cwd_in_path():
return imp(module, package=package)
I forgot to create a celery object in tasks.py:
from celery import Celery
from celery import task
celery = Celery('tasks', broker='amqp://guest@localhost//') #!
import os
os.environ[ 'DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE' ] = "proj.settings"
@task()
def add_photos_task( lad_id ):
...
After that we could normally start tasks:
celery -A tasks worker --loglevel=info
