RQ (Redis Queue) is a simple Python library for queueing jobs and processing
them in the background with workers. It is backed by Redis and it is designed
to have a low barrier to entry. It should be integrated in your web stack
easily.
RQ requires Redis >= 3.0.0.
Full documentation can be found here.

Getting started
First, run a Redis server, of course:
$ redis-server
To put jobs on queues, you don't have to do anything special, just define
your typically lengthy or blocking function:
import requests
def count_words_at_url(url):
"""Just an example function that's called async."""
resp = requests.get(url)
return len(resp.text.split())
You do use the excellent requests package, don't you?
Then, create an RQ queue:
from redis import Redis
from rq import Queue
queue = Queue(connection=Redis())
And enqueue the function call:
from my_module import count_words_at_url
job = queue.enq
