Installing

huey can be installed from PyPI using pip:

pip install huey

huey has no dependencies outside the standard library, but redis-py is required to utilize Redis for your task storage:

pip install redis

If your tasks are IO-bound rather than CPU-bound, you might consider using the greenlet worker type. To use the greenlet workers, you need to install gevent:

pip install gevent

Using git

If you want to run the very latest, you can clone the source repo and install the library:

git clone https://github.com/coleifer/huey.git
cd huey
python setup.py install

You can run the tests using the test-runner:

python setup.py test
