Getting task_id inside a Celery task

Question

This is probably a stupid question but its got me stumped coming from a Ruby background.

I have an object that looks like this when I try to print it.

Answer 1

Short story, within function scan, use scan.request.id.

See http://docs.celeryproject.org/en/latest/userguide/tasks.html?highlight=request#task-request-info
