delayed_job

DateWednesday, November 26, 2008 at 1:15PM
Looks like I'm going to roll out at least one and possibly two Rails applications that use delayed_job for asynchronous background job processing. What I haven't figured out is a good server-side deployment strategy. If you have, I'd love to talk to you.

That certainly looks interesting, and a lot simpler than some of the alternatives.

We might consider replacing Workling for delayed_job, as it seems much simpler.... further investigation needed.

Hey,

I've recently been using this god script. You'll obviously want to change the 20.times do line to something smaller depending on your server (I use 3 instances).

Just get God setup with that and you should be in the clear. No need to mess with anything else as far as I've seen.

Let me know what you think.

Best
