Django - Celery and Background Tasks

You wrote this in celery.py:

app = Celery('proj')
app.config_from_object('django.conf:settings')
app.autodiscover_tasks()

Why might this cause an error when running Celery?

ACelery app name should be 'django' not 'proj'

BMissing namespace='CELERY' in config_from_object call

Cautodiscover_tasks requires an argument

Dconfig_from_object should be called after autodiscover_tasks

Step-by-Step Solution

Solution:

Step 1: Check config_from_object usage
When loading Django settings, the namespace='CELERY' argument is needed to load Celery-specific settings.

Final Answer:
Missing namespace='CELERY' in config_from_object call -> Option B

config_from_object needs namespace='CELERY' [OK]

Quick Trick: Always add namespace='CELERY' when loading Django settings [OK]
