How to stop celery worker process

问题:

I have a Django project on an Ubuntu EC2 node, which I have been using to set up an asynchronous using Celery.

I am following this along with the docs.

I've been able to get a basic task working at the command line, using:

(env1)ubuntu@ip-172-31-22-65:~/projects/tp$ celery --app=myproject.celery:app worker --loglevel=INFO

To start a worker. I have since made some changes to the Python, but realized that I need to restart a worker.

From the command line, I've tried:

 ps auxww | grep 'celery worker' | awk '{print $2}' | xargs kill -9

But I can see that the worker is still running.

How can I kill it?

edit:

(env1)ubuntu@ip-172-31-22-65:~/projects/tp$ sudo ps auxww | grep celeryd | grep -v "grep" | awk '{print $2}' | sudo xargs kill -HUP
kill: invalid argument H

Usage:
 kill [options] <pid> [...]

Options:
 <pid> [...]            send signal to every <pid> listed
 -<signal>, -s, --signal <signal>
                        specify the <signal> to be sent
 -l, --list=[<signal>]  list all signal names, or convert one to a name
 -L, --table            list all signal names in a nice table

 -h, --help     display this help and exit
 -V, --version  output version information and exit

For more details see kill(1).

回答1:

Try this in terminal

ps aux|grep 'celery worker'

You will see like this

username  29042  0.0  0.6  23216 14356 pts/1    S+   00:18   0:01 /bin/celery worker ...

Then kill process id by

sudo kill -9 process_id # here 29042

If you have multiple processes, then you have to kill all process id using above kill commmand

sudo kill -9 id1 id2 id3 ...

From the celery doc

ps auxww | grep 'celery worker' | awk '{print $2}' | xargs kill -9

OR if you are running celeryd

ps auxww | grep celeryd | awk '{print $2}' | xargs kill -9

Note

If you are running celery in supervisor, even though kill the process, it automatically restarts(if autorestart=True in supervisor script).

回答2:

pkill -f "celery worker"

easy to kill process by string patterns

回答3:

celery -A proj control shutdown

Edited, incremeting a litte bit.

You should use this command from the root of your project, the "proj" is the name of your project, for instance if your Django project is called DjangoApp the command should look like this

celery -a DjangApp control shutdown

this should/will stop your celery worker from the project
