  • Database character sets and collations explained – why utf8 is not UTF-8

    > they would now need to store max 4N bytes, which (with a high N) can exceed internal limits such as maximum length of an index key.

    Specifically, indexes are limited to 767 bytes (some say 768?), which means 191 utf8mb4 characters. So your otherwise-innocuous VARCHAR(255) primary key breaks. I’ve seen this multiple times, e.g. django-celery probably still has this: https://github.com/celery/django-celery/issues/259.

    For small projects you'll be fine just doing it in the view. For bigger projects you would want to use a task scheduler like Celery and with django-celery to distribute the workload in the background.

    Not sure what your criteria for good observability ist, but flower served me well enough for this in the last couple of years.
  • Wondering if I should use Celery vs threads for what I want to do
    4 projects | /r/flask | 12 Aug 2021
    From experience i would not use threads for this or any background jobs. I would use Celery or Flask-RQ2 to be your workers, you will also probably end up using them to run other tasks as you encounter the need for other jobs. They both use Redis as a broker and job store and you can use Redis for other things like caching and so many other useful features. I kind of like RQ2 more then Celery because its a little simpler but Celery has a lot more to offer, more features. RQ2 has rq-dashboard for monitoring jobs and Celery has Flower.
