I am building a django 2.x site to: * upload documents (images, pdfs, and videos) * apply metadata to the documents (JSON metadata field) * transform the documents (thumbnails, OCR, language translations, image conversion, facial recognition, image blurring, etc.) based on some of the metadata fields * display the documents
Since the document transformations are fairly resource intensive and time consuming, I am thinking of using celery to build a state machine for the transformations, using celery tasks to transform the images, and celery signals to update the state of the document as the transformations complete successfully. I looked at django-fsm for this, but I think it will be better to run the transformations as celery tasks than to block the site. Does this plan make sense, or am I missing something regarding django and celery/redis. Thanks! Mark -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
