Django-celery-beat: shared_task defined in custom apps not showing up in registered tasks in periodic tasks admin page

[pramttl]

The tasks defined in the proj/proj/celery.py file directly are registering successfully.

However, shared tasks defined in the custom django apps are not registering to the database and not showing up in admin at /admin/django_celery_beat/periodictask/.

proj/proj/celery.py

# .. imports.. #
os.environ.setdefault('DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE', 'proj.settings')

celery_app = Celery('proj')
celery_app.config_from_object('django.conf:settings', namespace='CELERY')
celery_app.autodiscover_tasks()

@celery_app.task(bind=True)
def hello():
    print "This task is registering successfully"

proj/app/tasks.py

from celery import shared_task

@shared_task
def app_hello():
    print "This task is not registering"

I think, this could be because of the celery autodiscover_tasks not working as intended.

Sorry, this issue has nothing to do with django-celery-beat. Just for anyone's reference who hits this issue page in future, I'll describe what solved the issue for me. I had not replaced django.conf:settings in the celery.py file with the django settings variable.

In proj/proj/celery.py, this line:

celery_app.config_from_object('django.conf:settings', namespace='CELERY')

Should be,

celery_app.config_from_object(settings, namespace='CELERY')

Don't forget thefrom django.conf import settings at the top of the file.

celery_app.config_from_object(settings, namespace='CELERY')
Don't forget thefrom django.conf import settings at the top of the file.
This does not work for me

I agree, this issue has nothing to do with django-celery-beat as I am experiencing the same issue, but have not been able to find a solution anywhere. The bound task in celery.py is found, but the shared tasks in any appname/tasks.py files are not found.

@pramttl - the solution you suggested does not work for me either.

@tsantor try to add on your proj/proj/__init__.py

from .celery import celery_app

@dagnaldo thanks , it works

[chrisconlan]

@dagnaldo and his answer should be in the quick start guide. Been using celery for a year and never had to reach for this solution before.

@tsantor try to add on your proj/proj/__init__.py

from .celery import celery_app

It is imported as said in the quick start guide, but still shared_task is not showing up.
Though importing django.conf.settings fixed recurrsion error.

[srini-pen]

from django.conf import settings

app.config_from_object(settings)

It's working for me and able to see shared_task
