Using circus as an alternative to supervisor for python3 as supervisor (less than version 4) doesnt support python 3 and If are not using virtualenvs and are using python3 in your apps then you may want to have a look below. Our objective in this post is to daemonize celery with the help of circus which is an alternative for its widely used counterpart supervisor

install circus: pip3.4 install circus pip3.4 install circus-web pip3.4 install chaussette

then create a circus.ini file with following contents:

[watcher:celery]
cmd = full_path/python3.4 full_path/manage.py celeryd -B -l info

[watcher:celerycamera]
cmd = full_path/python3.4 full_path/manage.py celery events --camera=djcelery.snapshot.Camera

[watcher:dceleryflower]
cmd = full_path/python3.4 full_path/manage.py celery flower -A indeev5 --basic_auth=username:password --port=5555

to run this enter: circusd --daemon --log-level=ERROR circus.ini

to check the status enter: circusctl

to stop it enter: circusctl quit
