Hi, I have a controller method that makes at least 3 calls to external severs. The method is an oauth callback where intially I was (within that method) creating and saving a picture into rackspace, and then making two consecutive calls to an external service. After all that the end user sees a canvas that belongs to the external service application so my job is done. I have that in Heroku and I can''t use background jobs so it all happens in a single request, when it enters the callback. As you can imagine the request can take a bit of time sometimes and Heroku only allows 30 seconds without giving something back to the client. So it breaks. What I did is to separate a bit the parts. Now my callback just stores the oauth credentials and then redirects to another method where I save the picture to the cloud and again redirect to yet another method that takes care of using the api with the other service. The result is that now Heroku is happy and all three requests complete. But I''m not happy since I don''t think it is the way to implement it. The redirects go to an empty page that just reloads itself to the next phase. I would like to have a method that updates a loader or something in the browser without those ugly redirects. Any suggestions or examples around? -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
