The celery.contrib.rdb
package can be used to do remote debugging on celery tasks. It is an extension of PDB.
Sample usage:
from celery import task
from celery.contrib import rdb
@task()
def add(x, y):
result = x + y
rdb.set_trace() # <- set break-point
return result
To attach to the process running the task and use the debugger, run the following on a terminal window:
$ telnet localhost 6900
