Sidekiq Job Signal

Signal a job to quit, and block the job from executing through middleware.

Requirements

  • Ruby 2.7+ (Ruby 3.2+ required for Sidekiq 8.0+)
  • Sidekiq 7.3 - 8.1.x
  • Redis 7.0+ (or compatible)

Installation

Install the gem and add to the application's Gemfile by executing:

$ bundle add sidekiq-job-signal

In your Gemfile, specify the gem as:

gem "sidekiq-job-signal", require: "sidekiq/job_signal"

If bundler is not being used to manage dependencies, install the gem by executing:

$ gem install sidekiq-job-signal

Usage

Sidekiq::JobSignal.quit(jid: "12345")
Sidekiq::JobSignal.quit(job_class: "ExampleJob")

# log:
#   Turned #{12345}:#{JobWorkerClass} into a no-op: [1,2,3]"

# If you want to add the `quitting?` method to your job
class ExampleJob
  include Sidekiq::Job
  include Sidekiq::JobSignal::Receiver

  def perform
    if quitting?
      # finish early...
    end
  end
end

# middleware.rb
Sidekiq.configure_server do |config|
  config.server_middleware do |chain|
    # Defaults to by_class: false, by_jid: true
    chain.add ::Sidekiq::JobSignal::ServerMiddleware
    # OR
    chain.add ::Sidekiq::JobSignal::ServerMiddleware, by_class: true
    # OR
    chain.add ::Sidekiq::JobSignal::ServerMiddleware, by_jid: false, by_class: true
  end

  Sidekiq::JobSignal.on_quit do |job|
    Sidekiq.logger.info "Job was cancelled!"
    Sidekiq.logger.info job
  end
end

If you'd like to enable the Sidekiq Web UI for quitting jobs, you can include the following in some kind of initialization file. This will enable a new "Signals" tab.

# Recommended: Use the helper method that works with Sidekiq 7.x, 8.0, and 8.1+
Sidekiq::JobSignal.register_web_ui

# Or for Sidekiq 8.1+ you can use the new extension pattern directly:
Sidekiq::Web.configure do |config|
  config.register_extension(Sidekiq::JobSignal::Web, name: "Signals", tab: "signals", index: "signals")
end

# Or for Sidekiq 7.x (legacy pattern):
Sidekiq::Web.register(Sidekiq::JobSignal::Web)

Upgrading from 0.1.x to 0.2.0

Version 0.2.0 introduces breaking changes to support Sidekiq 7.3+ and 8.0+:

Breaking Changes

  1. Minimum Ruby version increased: Now requires Ruby 2.7+ (was 2.6+)
  2. Minimum Sidekiq version increased: Now requires Sidekiq 7.3+ (was 6.5+)
  3. Dropped Sidekiq 6.x support: If you're on Sidekiq 6.x, stay on sidekiq-job-signal 0.1.x

Migration Steps

  1. Ensure you're on Ruby 2.7 or higher (Ruby 3.2+ required if using Sidekiq 8.0+)
  2. Upgrade Sidekiq to 7.3 or higher: bundle update sidekiq
  3. Update sidekiq-job-signal to 0.2.0: bundle update sidekiq-job-signal
  4. (Optional) Update your Web UI registration to use the new helper method:
    # Old (still works):
    Sidekiq::Web.register Sidekiq::JobSignal::Web
    
    # New (recommended):
    Sidekiq::JobSignal.register_web_ui

What's New

  • Sidekiq 8.0+ support: Full compatibility with the latest Sidekiq 8.x releases
  • Version detection: The gem automatically detects your Sidekiq version and uses the appropriate Web UI registration method
  • Helper method: New Sidekiq::JobSignal.register_web_ui method for simplified Web UI setup

Staying on 0.1.x

If you need to stay on Sidekiq 6.x or Ruby < 2.7, you can pin to version 0.1.x in your Gemfile:

gem "sidekiq-job-signal", "~> 0.1.0", require: "sidekiq/job_signal"

Development

After checking out the repo, run bin/setup 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. To release a new version, update the version number in version.rb, and then run bundle exec rake release, which will create a git tag for the version, push git commits and the created tag, and push the .gem file to rubygems.org.
