Error: Unable to load celery application. The module tasks was not found

I'm trying to get celery up and running on Heroku as per instructions here

When I try to run "heroku local" however it fives me the following error:

10:05:42 PM worker.1 |  Error: 
10:05:42 PM worker.1 |  Unable to load celery application.
10:05:42 PM worker.1 |  The module tasks was not found.

Any help is much appreciated.

EDIT: It should be noted that I have a module tasks.py in my root directory with the following code in it:

import celery
app = celery.Celery('example')
@app.task
def add(x, y):
   return x + y

Based on the comments, I think you need to populate the init.py in your project folder (same folder as celery.py). You can follow Celery official documentation.

This is what you should add to __init__.py:

from __future__ import absolute_import, unicode_literals

# This will make sure the app is always imported when
# Django starts so that shared_task will use this app.
from .celery import app as celery_app

__all__ = ('celery_app',)

Hope this helps.
