According to the celery tutorial regarding real-time monitoring of celery workers, one can also programmatically capture the events produced by the workers and take action accordingly.

My question is how can I integrate a monitor as the one in this example, in a Celery-Django application?

EDIT: The code example in the tutorial looks like:

from celery import Celery

def my_monitor(app):
    state = app.events.State()

    def announce_failed_tasks(event):
        state.event(event)
        task_id = event['uuid']

        print('TASK FAILED: %s[%s] %s' % (
            event['name'], task_id, state[task_id].info(), ))
    with app.connection() as connection:
        recv = app.events.Receiver(connection, handlers={
                'task-failed': announce_failed_tasks,
                'worker-heartbeat': announce_dead_workers,
        })
        recv.capture(limit=None, timeout=None, wakeup=True)

if __name__ == '__main__':
    celery = Celery(broker='amqp://guest@localhost//')
    my_monitor(celery)

So I want to capture task_failed event sent by the worker, and to get its task_id like the tutorial shows, to get the result for this task from the result-backend that was configured for my application and process it further. My problem is that it is not obvious to me how to get the application, as in a django-celery project it is not transparent to me the instantiation of Celery library.

I am also open to any other idea as to how to process the results when a worker has finished executing a task.
