Is it possible to integrate celery with Kafka


I want to introduce multiprocessing in my code using celery. But currently my queue implementation is in Kafka.

Currently celery website mentions of only these 4 brokers: http://docs.celeryproject.org/en/master/getting-started/brokers/index.html#broker-overview

Is it possible to integrate Celery with Kafka something similar to RabbitMQ mentioned below:

from celery import Celery
app = Celery('tasks', broker='pyamqp://guest@localhost//')
@app.task
def add(x, y):
    return x + y

Solution

  • There was discussion on having kafka as broker for celery, And there is a partial implementation of it. I hope this helps you

    Looks like it will be available this Oct 31 or so.
