few days ago I have asked how to send email with django and openshift, but I guess it was too broad since it was closed.
So in this question I would like to know what task runner/queue/scheduling system should I use in general for django and openshift. Unfortunately I have not seen any tutorial for django and openshift.
Looks like celery is too complex to install easily on openshift.
Here are few tasks django-packages.
And openshift also provides IronWorker as scheduling app in marketplace. I tried to add free edition to my app, but I struggle setting it up.
So my question is, what queue system should I use with django and openshift? What do you use on openshift? Currently I only need to send personalised weekly emails, but my app works with few api providers and relatively large data, so I might use it more in the future.
There is no iron/openshift guide for Python, but there is one in Ruby that should give you a general concept- https://github.com/iron-io/ironmq-openshift-quickstart
