Applications can register their own actions with manage.py. For example, you might want to add a manage.py action for a Django app that you’re distributing.

To do this, add a management/commands directory to the application. Django will register a manage.py command for each Python module in that directory whose name doesn’t begin with an underscore. For example:

YOUR_APP/
    __init__.py
    models.py
    management/
        __init__.py
        commands/
            __init__.py
            runcelery.py
    tests.py
    views.py

In this example, the runcelery command will be made available to any project that includes the YOUR_APP application in INSTALLED_APPS.

The runcelery.py module has only one requirement – it must define a class Command that extends BaseCommand or one of its subclasses.

To implement the command, edit YOUR_APP/management/commands/runcelery.py to look like this:

from django.core.management.base import BaseCommand, CommandError
from celery.bin import worker

class Command(BaseCommand):
    help = 'Run celery worker'

    def handle(self, *args, **options):
        worker.worker(app=my_app).run()

you can now run it from manage.py like this: python manage.py runcelery
