I posted a working snippet here

https://gist.github.com/morlandi/bb915db7acef0ee0e4cb070921208610

It's a Django management command which subscribes a Redis channel, and upon 
receiving a new message sends it to django-channel.

You can skip the logging and redis connection boilerplate, and take a look 
at the loop() and broadcast() method which are the relevant part.
