app.celery.ContextTask.track_started
- ContextTask.track_started = False
If enabled the task will report its status as ‘started’ when the task is executed by a worker. Disabled by default as the normal behavior is to not report that level of granularity. Tasks are either pending, finished, or waiting to be retried.
Having a ‘started’ status can be useful for when there are long running tasks and there’s a need to report what task is currently running.
The application default can be overridden using the :setting:`task_track_started` setting.
