Flask-Beanstalk 0.0.1

Utilities for using Beanstalk with Flask

Client

from flask import Flask
from flask_beanstalk import Beanstalk

app = Flask(__name__)
beanstalk = Beanstalk(app)  # or beanstalk.init_app(app)

app.config['BEANSTALK_HOST']
app.config['BEANSTALK_PORT']
app.config['BEANSTALK_PARSE_YAML']
app.config['BEANSTALK_CONN_TIMEOUT']

Worker

import gevent
from flask_beanstalk import Worker as _Worker

class Worker(_Worker):
  def run(self, job):
    self._logger.info('Received: %r' % job.body)
    job.delete()

workers = Worker.spawn_workers(10)
try:
  while True:
    gevent.sleep(10000)
except KeyboardInterrupt:
  Worker.stop_workers(workers)

Try it out

Install and run beanstalkd if you haven't done so yet.

git clone https://github.com/marksteve/flask-beanstalk.git
cd flask-beanstalk
mkvirtualenv flask-beanstalk
workon flask-beanstalk
python setup.py develop
python example_worker.py

On another terminal:

workon flask-beanstalk
python example.py

Go to localhost:5000 in your browser to send a job. The worker should be able to accept and process it. Try to send multiple jobs before sending a SIGINT to the worker. Jobs being worked on should be processed first before the worker shuts down.
