ResqueMaster

ResqueMaster is a simple way of sending all Resque jobs to a master server using rabbitmq.

At SparkSeat, we use this to gather jobs from siteboxes and run them on our own servers.

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'resque_master'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install resque_master

Configuration

Out of the box, ResqueMaster will work with Resque.

If you require other plugins (such as resque-scheduler or resque-status), you will need to write and load plugins. An example plugin is provided for resque-scheduler.

On load, ResqueMaster reads config/resque_master.yml. A sample is included in config/resque_master.yml, and is copied here for convenience:

plugins:
  - resque_master/plugins/resque_scheduler

Currently, no Bunny configuration is possible, although pull requests would be welcomed.

Usage

On your client:

require 'resque_master'

ResqueMaster.enqueue(MyJob, args)

Then, on your server:

$ resque-master

Plugins

Please refer to plugins/resque and plugins/resque_scheduler.

In essence a plugin must be a class that calls ResqueMaster.add_resque_methods in its initializer, and requires any dependencies.

The plugin must also register itself ResqueMaster.register_plugin(ResqueMaster::Plugins::Resque)

Development

After checking out the repo, run bundle install to install dependencies. Then, run rake spec to run the tests. You can also run bin/console for an interactive prompt that will allow you to experiment.

To install this gem onto your local machine, run bundle exec rake install.
