Expectations

• Background tasks are defined in a Flask application namespace using Celery and the @app.task() decorator
• Each tasks results is routed to a different queue on the broker

Celery is loaded

app = create_app()
celery = middleware(
    app=app
)

def middleware(
    app: Flask = None,
    mq_host: str = None,
    mq_port: int = None,
    mq_user: str = None,
    mq_password: str = None,
) -> Celery:
    mq_host = "127.0.0.1" if mq_host is None else mq_host 
    mq_port = 5726 if mq_port is None else mq_port
    # print(f"import name: {app.import_name}")
    celery = Celery(
       app.import_name,
       backend='rpc://',
       broker=broker_connection_string()
    )
    #celery.conf.task_default_queue = "metrics.system"
    celery.conf.update(app.config)

    class ContextTask(celery.Task):
        def __call__(self, *args, **kwargs):
            with app.app_context():
                return self.run(*args, **kwargs)

    celery.Task = ContextTask
    return celery

I have defined a beat schedule a follows, these tasks execute with no problem, however they are not routed to the

celery.conf.update(beat_schedule = {
    'publish-vmem-60s': {
        'task': 'pylibs.sidecars.metrics.app.publish_vmem',
        'schedule': 60.0,

Problem

tasks don't get routed to the queues defined in beat schedule but instead are routed to the auto-generated task queue for celery (or hardcoded in @app.task(queue=<queue>)
