[re4lfl0w]

What happened?

unregistered task of type 'users.tasks.get_users_count'

What should've happened instead?

return users count

I tried many thins

1. create new app and wrote tasks.py

I try startapp shop.
tasks.py in shop

# tasks.py

from config import celery_app


@celery_app.task()
def add(a: int, b: int) -> int:
    return a + b

In [1]: from shop.tasks import *

In [2]: add.delay(1,2).get()
Out[2]: 3

result: Good working

celery Have tasks

But not working

Result

Tasks.py in the shop app works well, but I don't know why the function in tasks.py created by the cookie cutter doesn't work properly. Of course, it's okay if you don't use it, but I don't understand the operation from a developer's perspective.
