simplejob

Painless job queueing, backed by AMQP.

• Super simple interface
• Robust jobs that never get lost
• Jobs don't get marked complete until they are finished (they survive reboots/kill -9)
• One work queue per worker pool, with one or more job names mapped to each work queue (for easy monitoring)
• Jobs which throw exceptions are logged and removed, preventing infinite job-retry loops

$ gem install simplejob

Start your RabbitMQ server (install one if necessary).

require "simplejob"

SimpleJob.send("hello")

require "simplejob"

SimpleJob::Worker.start do
  handle "hello" do |props|
    puts "got it!"
  end
end
