[如何使用redis构建异步任务处理程序](https://www.letianbiji.com/ds/2015-11-03-redis-async-task.html)

---

RQ (_Redis Queue_) is a simple Python library for queueing jobs and processing
them in the background with workers. It is backed by Redis and it is designed
to have a low barrier to entry. It should be integrated in your web stack
easily.

RQ requires Redis >= 2.7.0.

Full documentation can be found [here][d].

## Getting started

First, run a Redis server, of course:

```console
$ redis-server
```

To put jobs on queues, you don't have to do anything special, just define
your typically lengthy or blocking function:

```python
import requests

def count_words_at_url(url):
"""Just an example function that's called async."""
resp = requests.get(url)
return len(resp.text.split())
```

You do use the excellent [requests][r] package, don't you?

Then, create an RQ queue:

```python
from rq import Queue, use_connection
use_connection()
q = Queue()
```

And enqueue the function call:

```python
from my_module import count_words_at_url
result = q.enqueue(count_words_at_url, 'http://nvie.com')
```

For a more complete example, refer to the [docs][d]. But this is the essence.

### The worker

To start executing enqueued function calls in the background, start a worker
from your project's directory:

```console
$ rqworker
*** Listening for work on default
Got count_words_at_url('http://nvie.com') from default
Job result = 818
*** Listening for work on default
```

That's about it.

## Installation

Simply use the following command to install the latest released version:

pip install rq

If you want the cutting edge version (that may well be broken), use this:

pip install -e [email protected]:nvie/rq.git@master#egg=rq

## Project history

This project has been inspired by the good parts of [Celery][1], [Resque][2]
and [this snippet][3], and has been created as a lightweight alternative to the
heaviness of Celery or other AMQP-based queueing implementations.
