Signals
=======
.. py:currentmodule:: django_q
Available signals
-----------------
Django Q emits the following signals during its lifecycle.
Before enqueuing a task
"""""""""""""""""""""""
The ``django_q.signals.pre_enqueue`` signal is emitted before a task is
enqueued. The task dictionary is given as the ``task`` argument.
Before executing a task
"""""""""""""""""""""""
The ``django_q.signals.pre_execute`` signal is emitted before a task is
executed by a worker. This signal provides two arguments:
- ``task``: the task dictionary.
- ``func``: the actual function that will be executed. If the task was created
with a function path, this argument will be the callable function
nonetheless.
Subscribing to a signal
-----------------------
Connecting to a Django Q signal is done in the same manner as any other Django
signal::
from django.dispatch import receiver
from django_q.signals import pre_enqueue, pre_execute
@receiver(pre_enqueue)
def my_pre_enqueue_callback(sender, task, **kwargs):
print("Task {} will be enqueued".format(task["name"]))
@receiver(pre_execute)
def my_pre_execute_callback(sender, func, task, **kwargs):
print("Task {} will be executed by calling {}".format(
task["name"], func))
