本章我们跟着日志一起看看一次完整的任务调度流程,从另外一个角度了解启动过程中celery都做了什么。

Celery是一款非常简单、灵活、可靠的分布式系统,可用于处理大量消息,并且提供了一整套操作此系统的工具。Celery 也是一款消息队列工具,可用于处理实时数据以及任务调度。

本文是是celery源码解析的第篇,在前五篇里分别介绍了:

  1. 神器 celery 源码解析- vine实现Promise功能
  2. 神器 celery 源码解析- py-amqp实现AMQP协议
  3. 神器 celery 源码解析- kombu,一个python实现的消息库
  4. 神器 celery 源码解析- kombu的企业级算法
  5. 神器 celery 源码解析- celery启动流程分析

worker模式启动流程

我们启动celery的worker, 启动大概分成3个阶段,先看第一阶段创建蓝图:

✗ celery -A myapp worker -l DEBUG
[2021-11-24 15:53:12,984: DEBUG/MainProcess] | Worker: Preparing bootsteps.

[2021-11-24 15:53:13,038: DEBUG/MainProcess] | Consumer: New boot order: {Connection, Events, Mingle, Tasks, Control, Gossip, Agent, Heart, event loop}

这一阶段主要启动了worker和consumer2个蓝图, 下面是蓝图的创建和日志可以完整对应:

        # 创建蓝图
        self._debug('Preparing bootsteps.')
        order = self.order = []
        steps = self.steps = self.claim_steps()

        self._debug('Building graph...')
        for S in self._finalize_steps(steps):
            step = S(parent, **kwargs)
            steps[step.name] = step
            order.append(step)
        self._debug('New boot order: {%s}',
                    ', '.join(s.alias for s in self.order))
        for step in order:
            step.include(parent)
        return self

第一个Worker蓝图在WorkController中,包括了下面一些步骤:

    name = 'Worker'
    default_steps = {
        'celery.worker.components:Hub',
        'celery.worker.components:Pool',
        'celery.worker.components:Beat',
        'celery.worker.components:Timer',
        'celery.worker.components:StateDB',
        'celery.worker.components:Consumer',
        'celery.worker.autoscale:WorkerComponent',
    }

第二个Consumer蓝图在Consumer中,包括了下面一些步骤:

class Consumer:
    """Consumer blueprint."""
    class Blueprint(bootsteps.Blueprint):
    """Consumer blueprint."""

    name = 'Consumer'
    default_steps = [
        'celery.worker.consumer.connection:Connection',
        'celery.worker.consumer.mingle:Mingle',
        'celery.worker.consumer.events:Events',
        'celery.worker.consumer.gossip:Gossip',
        'celery.worker.consumer.heart:Heart',
        'celery.worker.consumer.control:Control',
        'celery.worker.consumer.tasks:Tasks',
        'celery.worker.consumer.consumer:Evloop',
        'celery.worker.consumer.agent:Agent',
    ]

创建完2个蓝图后,并没有立即启动蓝图,转而进入第二阶段创建启动worker,日志输出如下:

这个过程app创建完成,把当前的配置信息,task列表都展示出来。 展示信息的模版:

task信息来自app的tasks,在上篇我们介绍过,其实就是TaskRegistry;并发模式默认使用的prefork,多进程模式;然后是AMQP的消费者,queue,exchange等信息:

        events=events,
        queues=app.amqp.queues.format(indent=0, indent_first=False),
    ).splitlines()
    ...

我们可以查看celery的进程数,确认总共创建了12个进程(进程数是通过cpu核数计算出来):

除了默认的多进程方式,celery还支持下面这些并发模式:

    'solo': 'celery.concurrency.solo:TaskPool',
    'processes': 'celery.concurrency.prefork:TaskPool',  # XXX compat alias
    'threads': 'celery.concurrency.thread:TaskPool'
}

def get_implementation(cls):
    """Return pool implementation by name."""
    return symbol_by_name(cls, ALIASES)

threads 需要concurrent.futures支持,也就是python3.2版本以上

worker启动的第3阶段就是启动蓝图,日志如下:

在worker启动中,我们需要关注worker蓝图的hub,pool二步(step),consumer蓝图的connection,events,mingle,task,control,gossip,heart和Evloop七步(step)。

beat模式启动流程

beat模式的启动和worker模式不一样。beat模式主要是定时处理,并且beat模式不执行具体的任务,只是负责触发定时任务。其启动日志如下:

从日志可以看到beat模式启动也大概可以分成2个阶段。第一个阶段就是创建和启动任务调度器,由beat命令提供:

1

3
4
5

7

class Beat:
    """Beat as a service."""
    
    def run(self):
        print(str(self.colored.cyan(
            f'celery beat v{VERSION_BANNER} is starting.')))
        self.init_loader()
        self.set_process_title()
        self.start_scheduler()

第二个阶段,任务调度器开始时间循环:

# celery/beat.py

class Service:
    """Celery periodic task service."""
    
    scheduler_cls = PersistentScheduler
    
    def start(self, embedded_process=False):
        info('beat: Starting...')
        debug('beat: Ticking with max interval->%s',
              humanize_seconds(self.scheduler.max_interval))

        signals.beat_init.send(sender=self)
        if embedded_process:
            signals.beat_embedded_init.send(sender=self)
            platforms.set_process_title('celery beat')

        try:
            while not self._is_shutdown.is_set():
                interval = self.scheduler.tick()
                if interval and interval > 0.0:
                    debug('beat: Waking up %s.',
                          humanize_seconds(interval, prefix='in '))
                    time.sleep(interval)
                    if self.scheduler.should_sync():
                        self.scheduler._do_sync()
        except (KeyboardInterrupt, SystemExit):
            self._is_shutdown.set()
        finally:
            self.sync()

这里的时间循环使用一个while循环去完成,每次tick都会检查是否有需要执行的任务,默认5分钟检查一次。

如果到达任务执行的时刻,则是通过下面的apply_async发送到worker(远程)去执行:

 1
 2
 3
 4
 5
 6
 7
 8
 9
10
11
12
13
def apply_async(self, entry, producer=None, advance=True, **kwargs):
    # Update time-stamps and run counts before we actually execute,
    # so we have that done if an exception is raised (doesn't schedule
    # forever.)
    entry = self.reserve(entry) if advance else entry
    task = self.app.tasks.get(entry.task)

    try:
        entry_args = [v() if isinstance(v, BeatLazyFunc) else v for v in (entry.args or [])]
        entry_kwargs = {k: v() if isinstance(v, BeatLazyFunc) else v for k, v in entry.kwargs.items()}
        return task.apply_async(entry_args, entry_kwargs,
                                    producer=producer,
                                    **entry.options)

multi模式启动流程

使用multi模式启动celery,可以让celery以服务的形式在background执行任务,并且可以启动更多的celery的执行进程。使用下面命令启动2个node ,w1和w2。

1
2
3
4
5
✗ celery multi start w1 w2 -A myapp -l DEBUG
celery multi v5.0.5 (singularity)
> Starting nodes...
	> w1@bogon: OK
	> w2@bogon: OK

注意这个命令需要sudo权限

使用下面命令监测celery服务的状态。

1
2
3
4
5
✗ celery -A myapp status
->  w1@bogon: OK
->  w2@bogon: OK

2 nodes online.

w1的启动流程会写入到日志,日志内容如下:

w1的启动方式和worker模式基本一致,特别的地方在日志的最后部分显示w2启动完成后,w1和w2进行了互联。对应可以在w2的日志中看到w1的连接信息:

✗ cat /var/log/celery/w2.log

[2021-12-05 15:59:19,089: INFO/MainProcess] w2@bogon ready.

[2021-12-05 15:59:20,663: DEBUG/MainProcess] w1@bogon joined the party

所以multi模式的特点就是新增加了Cluster和Node的概念,用来管理所有的worker,主要代码如下:

def start(self, cluster):
    self.note('> Starting nodes...')
    return int(any(cluster.start()))

def start(self):
    return [self.start_node(node) for node in self]

def start_node(self, node):
    maybe_call(self.on_node_start, node)
    retcode = node.start(
            self.env,
            on_spawn=self.on_child_spawn,
            on_signalled=self.on_child_signalled,
            on_failure=self.on_child_failure,
        )
    maybe_call(self.on_node_status, node, retcode)
    return retcode

Node直接同步是在Gossip的step中:

class Gossip(bootsteps.ConsumerStep):
    ...
    def on_node_join(self, worker):
        debug('%s joined the party', worker.hostname)
        self._call_handlers(self.on.node_join, worker)

完成测试后,可以使用命令 celery multi stop w1 w2 关闭node

worker接收任务流程

worker接收任务并执行的日志如下:

从日志信息可以看到,主进程MainProcess收到task执行的请求,然后从任务池中获取到任务,然后调度任务到一个子进程ForkPoolWorker-9中执行。

任务的接收是在默认的策略函数中开始:

小结

我们通过对worker,beat和multi三种启动模式的日志跟踪分析,对celery的启动流程和模块功能有更进一步的了解。三个模式都需要创建app,所以启动时候通过参数-A myapp参数,由app创建/查找各种task。不同的地方首先是beat和worker/multi不同,beat实际上就是一个生产者,通过配置定时的产生任务,然后发送给worker/multi具体执行。其次不同的是worker和multi的运作方式,multi以服务方式运行,并且可以跨机器。在worker模式下,本机创建多个工作进程,是一个多进程模型。multi则是多个机器Node形成一个Cluster集群,任务在集群内部进行调度。celery的分布式模型大概可以如下图:

同时通过运行日志分析,我们可以知道celery的启动过程通过不同的Blueprint的不同Step过程实现;定时功能主要在beat和schedule模块实现;而分布式功能主要在concurrency模块,这样对各个模块的主体功能分工会有更清晰的认知。
