✨ CELERY-UPGRADE-SETTINGS ✨

okay bestie, so this is a page from the celery upgrade settings Manual, and it's literally the glow-up guide for your settings file 💅. She's giving "move your whole config from the old era to the new era," and honestly? Iconic. Let's get into it 🫶

🌸 NAME 🌸

celery-upgrade-settings — Migrate settings from Celery 3.x to Celery...

(no cap, the original literally trails off with those three dots, and I'm not about to editorialize on a NAME line. Periodt. 👑)

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

celery upgrade settings [OPTIONS] FILENAME

Note how FILENAME sits there at the end with no brackets — she's not optional, she's required, main character energy only 💖

💜 DESCRIPTION 💜

Migrate settings from Celery 3.x to Celery 4.x.

That's the whole vibe. You point it at your settings situation and it hauls your 3.x config forward into 4.x land 🌈. Lowkey the most useful kind of chore, fr fr.

🎀 OPTIONS 🎀

  • --django — Upgrade Django project. So if your settings live inside a Django project, this is the flag you reach for 🍓
  • --compat — Maintain backwards compatibility. Pick this when you still need the old stuff to keep working — she'll keep things compatible on the way over ✨
  • --no-backup — Don't backup original files. Careful bestie!! The default behaviour is to make a backup of your originals, and this flag turns that safety net OFF. If you pass --no-backup, whatever happens next is on you 😭🙈
Like, genuinely: the backups are there for a reason. Don't raw-dog a settings migration with --no-backup unless you've got your own copy somewhere. I'm not being dramatic, I'm being accurate. 💀

💫 and that's the whole page!! ✨ Version 5.6.3, dated 2026-05-14, straight from the celery upgrade settings Manual. Go forth and migrate, you gorgeous little 4.x haver 💖🦋🌸🎀👑
