django celery email

To send emails asynchronously using Django Celery, you can follow the steps below:

  1. Install Django Celery: First, you need to install Django Celery. You can do this by running the following command in your terminal: pip install django-celery

  2. Configure Celery: Next, you need to configure Celery in your Django project. Open your project's settings.py file and add the following lines of code: ```python # settings.py

import djcelery

djcelery.setup_loader()

BROKER_URL = 'redis://localhost:6379/0'

CELERY_RESULT_BACKEND = 'redis://localhost:6379/0'

CELERY_ACCEPT_CONTENT = ['json'] CELERY_TASK_SERIALIZER = 'json' CELERY_RESULT_SERIALIZER = 'json' ```

  1. Create an Email Task: Now, you need to create a task that will handle sending emails asynchronously. In your Django app, create a new file called tasks.py and add the following code: ```python # tasks.py

from django.core.mail import EmailMessage from celery import shared_task

@shared_task def send_email(subject, message, from_email, recipient_list): email = EmailMessage(subject, message, from_email, recipient_list) email.send() ```

  1. Use the Email Task: Finally, you can use the email task in your views or other parts of your Django project. Import the send_email task and call it with the required arguments, like this: ```python # views.py

from .tasks import send_email

def send_async_email(request): subject = 'Hello' message = 'This is an asynchronous email' from_email = '[email protected]' recipient_list = ['[email protected]']

   send_email.delay(subject, message, from_email, recipient_list)

```

With these steps, you can send emails asynchronously using Django Celery. The send_email task will be executed in the background by Celery, allowing your application to continue running without waiting for the email to be sent.
