"""myapp.py

Usage:

   (window1)$ python myapp.py worker -l info

   (window2)$ python
   >>> from myapp import add
   >>> add.delay(16, 16).get()
   32


You can also specify the app to use with the `celery` command,
using the `-A` / `--app` option::

    $ celery -A myapp worker -l info

With the `-A myproj` argument the program will search for an app
instance in the module ``myproj``.  You can also specify an explicit
name using the fully qualified form::

    $ celery -A myapp:app worker -l info
