delayed_job_schedule¶ ↑

This gem provides a schedule plugin for delayed_job. The delayed_job worker will check after each loop for schedule tasks to do.

Pro¶ ↑

• uses less memory than multiple workers for delayed_job and a scheduler (a.e. clockwork)

Contra¶ ↑

• you can only use time ranges

Install¶ ↑

Add delayed_job_schedule to your Gemfile:

gem 'delayed_job_schedule', git: 'https://github.com/lichtbit/delayed_job_schedule.git'

Use it in your initializer:

Delayed::Schedule.every(1.minutes) { Cache.clean_up! }
Delayed::Schedule.every(5.minutes) { Mailer.send_status }
Delayed::Schedule.every(3.hours) { Database.reimport }

Delayed::Schedule.worker_select = -> (worker) do
  worker.queues == [] || worker.queues == ['default']
end
