Running the Celery worker
=========================

gvafile uses the `Celery`_ distributed task queue system. The gvafile logic is
executed by a celery worker. After all dependencies are installed you can go
into the gvafile directory and run the celery worker with:

.. code-block:: sh

    $ cd gvafile
    $ pipenv run celery -A filerservertasks worker -Q web -l info
