Not able to figure out how to post a delayed task. about celery-php

[gjedeer]

Hi,

No, it's not possible, I didn't reverse engineer the protocol Celery is using for delayed task.

It looks like a simple addition, though:

https://github.com/celery/celery/blob/b0cfa0d818743262a032c541cce2fa8c43fabad4/celery/app/amqp.py#L281

There's an "eta" field which should contain the date of execution. As usually, your patches are welcome :)

I have submitted the fix for eta.
Please have a look and let me know if it is acceptable.

:)

The fix is in this pull request:

Looks OK to me. Thank you! I'll write unit tests before merging, or you
can do it if you have time.

@lankesh @gjedeer is there any update on this? has it been merged? that merge link doesn't show me anything.

if it's been merged -- how do I use it? thanks!

Ah, I think I found my answer in case anybody else comes across this.

	* $task_args may contain additional arguments such as eta which are useful in task execution
	* The usecase of this field is as follows:
	* $task_args = array( 'eta' => "2014-12-02T16:00:00" );
