Starting Celery on Production

Good day, I am trying to integrate celery and redis into a Django project that performs background tasks. The project works fine on the development server, I have tried to use the railway cli to start the celery worker and beat, but the process does work correctly. That is once I close the cli the celery worker and beat stops working. How can I achieve this.
Solution:
you want two railway services in the same railway project. one railway service will be for just for django the other railway service will be just for celery the two railway services will have all the same service variables the two railway services will deploy from the same github repository...

If project ID is the same as service ID then 43cdf491-3552-4768-a29e-590c8f31e84c Project ID: 43cdf491-3552-4768-a29e-590c8f31e84c

the cli runs commands locally using the env vars on Railway, it does not run the command on Railways servers ssh access is not possible on Railway, you’ll have to find another way to start your workers

you create another empty railway service in your pre existing project, set the appropriate start command for celery in the service settings, set up all the needed service variables, and then attach your github repo in the service settings, it will then deploy and start celery

please no pings #🛂|readme #5 as previously mentioned you need two railway services in your current railway project, if you don't know how to add a service there is a + New button in the top right of the project view
