Misleading documentation about environment variables

Open fildafer opened this issue 9 months ago • 2 comments

Describe the bug The "Environment variables" section of the documentation reads "All Flower options must be prefixed with FLOWER_" but, in fact, the container expects the broker_url parameter to be set in the env variable CELERY_BROKER_URL.

Also, the broker_url variable is not documented, while the broker_api is, which is also misleading because setting it causes Error 500 and Connection refused errors and prevents the service to start.

The doc seems correct:

All Flower options must be prefixed with FLOWER_

And conversely, all Celery options will not have the FLOWER_ prefix.

Is there a way to set a new limit/length of Result cells in the Tasks view? According to AI there used to be an env variable that allowed adjusting that?
