Key Highlights
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

See :ref:`whatsnew-5.5` for a complete overview or read the main highlights below.

Redis Broker Stability Improvements
-----------------------------------

Long-standing disconnection issues with the Redis broker have been identified and
resolved in Kombu 5.5.0, which is included with this release. These improvements
significantly enhance stability when using Redis as a broker.

Additionally, the Redis backend now has better exception handling with the new
``exception_safe_to_retry`` feature, which improves resilience during temporary
Redis connection issues. See :ref:`conf-redis-result-backend` for complete
documentation.

``pycurl`` replaced with ``urllib3``
------------------------------------

Replaced the :pypi:`pycurl` dependency with :pypi:`urllib3`.

We're monitoring the performance impact of this change and welcome feedback from users
who notice any significant differences in their environments.

`2134 <https://github.com/celery/kombu/pull/2134>`_ and integrated in Celery via
`9526 <https://github.com/celery/celery/pull/9526>`_.

RabbitMQ Quorum Queues Support
------------------------------

Added support for RabbitMQ's new `Quorum Queues <https://www.rabbitmq.com/docs/quorum-queues>`_
feature, including compatibility with ETA tasks. This implementation has some limitations compared
to classic queues, so please refer to the documentation for details.

`Native Delayed Delivery <https://docs.particular.net/transports/rabbitmq/delayed-delivery>`_
is automatically enabled when quorum queues are detected to implement the ETA mechanism.

See :ref:`using-quorum-queues` for complete documentation.

Configuration options:

- :setting:`broker_native_delayed_delivery_queue_type`: Specifies the queue type for
delayed delivery (default: ``quorum``)
- :setting:`task_default_queue_type`: Sets the default queue type for tasks
(default: ``classic``)
- :setting:`worker_detect_quorum_queues`: Controls automatic detection of quorum
queues (default: ``True``)

For details regarding the 404 errors, see
`New Year's Security Incident <https://github.com/celery/celery/discussions/9525>`_.

Soft Shutdown Mechanism
-----------------------

Soft shutdown is a time limited warm shutdown, initiated just before the cold shutdown.
The worker will allow :setting:`worker_soft_shutdown_timeout` seconds for all currently
executing tasks to finish before it terminates. If the time limit is reached, the worker
will initiate a cold shutdown and cancel all currently executing tasks.

This feature is particularly valuable when using brokers with visibility timeout
mechanisms, such as Redis or SQS. It allows the worker enough time to re-queue
tasks that were not completed before exiting, preventing task loss during worker
shutdown.

See :ref:`worker-stopping` for complete documentation on worker shutdown types.

Configuration options:

- :setting:`worker_soft_shutdown_timeout`: Sets the duration in seconds for the soft
shutdown period (default: ``0.0``, disabled)
- :setting:`worker_enable_soft_shutdown_on_idle`: Controls whether soft shutdown
should be enabled even when the worker is idle (default: ``False``)

`9238 <https://github.com/celery/celery/pull/9238>`_.

Pydantic Support
----------------

New native support for Pydantic models in tasks. This integration
allows you to leverage Pydantic's powerful data validation and serialization
capabilities directly in your Celery tasks.

Example usage:

.. code-block:: python

 from pydantic import BaseModel
 from celery import Celery

 app = Celery('tasks')

 class ArgModel(BaseModel):
     value: int

 class ReturnModel(BaseModel):
     value: str

 app.task(pydantic=True)
 def x(arg: ArgModel) -> ReturnModel:
      args/kwargs type hinted as Pydantic model will be converted
     assert isinstance(arg, ArgModel)

      The returned model will be converted to a dict automatically
     return ReturnModel(value=f"example: {arg.value}")

See :ref:`task-pydantic` for complete documentation.

Configuration options:

- ``pydantic=True``: Enables Pydantic integration for the task
- ``pydantic_strict=True/False``: Controls whether strict validation is enabled
(default: ``False``)
- ``pydantic_context={...}``: Provides additional context for validation
- ``pydantic_dump_kwargs={...}``: Customizes serialization behavior

`9393 <https://github.com/celery/celery/pull/9393>`_.

Google Pub/Sub Transport
------------------------

New support for Google Cloud Pub/Sub as a message transport, expanding
Celery's cloud integration options.

See :ref:`broker-gcpubsub` for complete documentation.

For the Google Pub/Sub support you have to install additional dependencies:

.. code-block:: console

 $ pip install "celery[gcpubsub]"

Then configure your Celery application to use the Google Pub/Sub transport:

.. code-block:: python

 broker_url = 'gcpubsub://projects/project-id'

`9351 <https://github.com/celery/celery/pull/9351>`_.

Python 3.13 Support
-------------------

Official support for Python 3.13. All core dependencies have been
updated to ensure compatibility, including Kombu and py-amqp.

This release maintains compatibility with Python 3.8 through 3.13, as well as
PyPy 3.10+.

Contributed by `Nusnus <https://github.com/Nusnus>`_ in
`9309 <https://github.com/celery/celery/pull/9309>`_ and
`9350 <https://github.com/celery/celery/pull/9350>`_.

REMAP_SIGTERM Support
---------------------

The "REMAP_SIGTERM" feature, previously undocumented, has been tested, documented,
and is now officially supported. This feature allows you to remap the SIGTERM
signal to SIGQUIT, enabling you to initiate a soft or cold shutdown using TERM
instead of QUIT.

This is particularly useful in containerized environments where SIGTERM is the
standard signal for graceful termination.

See :ref:`Cold Shutdown documentation <worker-REMAP_SIGTERM>` for more info.

To enable this feature, set the environment variable:

.. code-block:: bash

 export REMAP_SIGTERM="SIGQUIT"

Contributed by `Nusnus <https://github.com/Nusnus>`_ in
`9461 <https://github.com/celery/celery/pull/9461>`_.

Database Backend Improvements
-----------------------------

New ``create_tables_at_setup`` option for the database
backend. This option controls when database tables are created, allowing for
non-lazy table creation.

By default (``create_tables_at_setup=True``), tables are created during backend
initialization. Setting this to ``False`` defers table creation until they are
actually needed, which can be useful in certain deployment scenarios where you want
more control over database schema management.

See :ref:`conf-database-result-backend` for complete documentation.

Configuration:

.. code-block:: python

 app.conf.result_backend = 'db+sqlite:///results.db'
 app.conf.database_create_tables_at_setup = False

A completely new ETA mechanism was developed to allow full support with RabbitMQ Quorum Queues.

After upgrading to this version, please share your feedback on the quorum queues support.

Relevant Issues:
`9207 <https://github.com/celery/celery/discussions/9207>`_,
`6067 <https://github.com/celery/celery/discussions/6067>`_

- New :ref:`documentation <using-quorum-queues>`.

----------------------------------------

After upgrading to this version, please share your feedback on the Google Pub/Sub transport support.

Relevant Issues:
`9351 <https://github.com/celery/celery/pull/9351>`_

Python 3.13 Improved Support
----------------------------

Additional dependencies have been migrated successfully to Python 3.13, including Kombu and py-amqp.

Previous Pre-release Highlights
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Python 3.13 Initial Support
---------------------------

This release introduces the initial support for Python 3.13 with Celery.

After upgrading to this version, please share your feedback on the Python 3.13 support.

Soft Shutdown
-------------

The soft shutdown is a new mechanism in Celery that sits between the warm shutdown and the cold shutdown.
It sets a time limited "warm shutdown" period, during which the worker will continue to process tasks that are already running.
After the soft shutdown ends, the worker will initiate a graceful cold shutdown, stopping all tasks and exiting.

The soft shutdown is disabled by default, and can be enabled by setting the new configuration option :setting:`worker_soft_shutdown_timeout`.
If a worker is not running any task when the soft shutdown initiates, it will skip the warm shutdown period and proceed directly to the cold shutdown
unless the new configuration option :setting:`worker_enable_soft_shutdown_on_idle` is set to True. This is useful for workers
that are idle, waiting on ETA tasks to be executed that still want to enable the soft shutdown anyways.

The soft shutdown can replace the cold shutdown when using a broker with a visibility timeout mechanism, like :ref:`Redis <broker-redis>`
or :ref:`SQS <broker-sqs>`, to enable a more graceful cold shutdown procedure, allowing the worker enough time to re-queue tasks that were not
completed (e.g., ``Restoring 1 unacknowledged message(s)``) by resetting the visibility timeout of the unacknowledged messages just before
the worker exits completely.

After upgrading to this version, please share your feedback on the new Soft Shutdown mechanism.

Relevant Issues:
`9213 <https://github.com/celery/celery/pull/9213>`_,
`9231 <https://github.com/celery/celery/pull/9231>`_,
`9238 <https://github.com/celery/celery/pull/9238>`_

- New :ref:`documentation <worker-stopping>` for each shutdown type.
- New :setting:`worker_soft_shutdown_timeout` configuration option.
- New :setting:`worker_enable_soft_shutdown_on_idle` configuration option.

REMAP_SIGTERM
-------------

The ``REMAP_SIGTERM`` "hidden feature" has been tested, :ref:`documented <worker-REMAP_SIGTERM>` and is now officially supported.
This feature allows users to remap the SIGTERM signal to SIGQUIT, to initiate a soft or a cold shutdown using :sig:`TERM`
instead of :sig:`QUIT`.

Pydantic Support
----------------

This release introduces support for Pydantic models in Celery tasks.
For more info, see the new pydantic example and PR `9023 <https://github.com/celery/celery/pull/9023>`_ by mathiasertl.

After upgrading to this version, please share your feedback on the new Pydantic support.

Redis Broker Stability Improvements
-----------------------------------
The root cause of the Redis broker instability issue has been `identified and resolved <https://github.com/celery/kombu/pull/2007>`_
in the v5.4.0 release of Kombu, which should resolve the disconnections bug and offer additional improvements.

After upgrading to this version, please share your feedback on the Redis broker stability.

.. _version-5.3.6:

5.4.0

=====

:release-date: 2024-04-17
:release-by: Tomer Nosrati

Celery v5.4.0 and v5.3.x have consistently focused on enhancing the overall QA, both internally and externally.
This effort led to the new pytest-celery v1.0.0 release, developed concurrently with v5.3.0 & v5.4.0.

This release introduces two significant QA enhancements:

- **Smoke Tests**: A new layer of automatic tests has been added to Celery's standard CI. These tests are designed to handle production scenarios and complex conditions efficiently. While new contributions will not be halted due to the lack of smoke tests, we will request smoke tests for advanced changes where appropriate.
- `Standalone Bug Report Script <https://docs.celeryq.dev/projects/pytest-celery/en/latest/userguide/celery-bug-report.html>`_: The new pytest-celery plugin now allows for encapsulating a complete Celery dockerized setup within a single pytest script. Incorporating these into new bug reports will enable us to reproduce reported bugs deterministically, potentially speeding up the resolution process.

Contrary to the positive developments above, there have been numerous reports about issues with the Redis broker malfunctioning
upon restarts and disconnections. Our initial attempts to resolve this were not successful (8796).
With our enhanced QA capabilities, we are now prepared to address the core issue with Redis (as a broker) again.

The rest of the changes for this release are grouped below, with the changes from the latest release candidate listed at the end.
