Suspended start of task not suspended
Hi
I thought this should suspend the task by 1 minute, but it starts
immediately:
MiddleMan.ask_work( :worker => :bar_worker, :worker_method
=> :test_method, :trigger_args => { :start => (Time.now + 1.minute)})
Is the start argument not allowed in the new backgroundrb (mine is at
rev HEAD (=314))? What can I do about this?
I really need to suspend starting the task as I want

Feedback on RC2
I tried to upgrade my existing application to RC2 last night. Like many, I
use this mostly for running scheduled tasks. For the moment, I''ve abandoned
the effort, but am looking forward to being able to use this. Feedback
below:
First, the reason I was looking forward to this upgrade was to use the
threaded scheduler. I have an application with long-running tasks. I found

start a worker when bdrb starts
I am sure..again I am missing something, but I am trying to start a
worker, when backgroundrb starts and it doesn''t seem to work.
Here is my config/backgroundrb_schedules.yml file:
feed_worker:
class: feed_worker
job_key: feed_worker_key
worker_method: do_work
trigger_args:
repeat_interval: 20.minutes
I even tried this from Rails controller:

BackgrounDRb version 1.0RC1 available now
Hi Folks,
BackgrounDRb is a Ruby job server and scheduler. Its main intent is to be
used with Ruby on Rails applications for offloading long-running tasks.
Since a Rails application blocks while serving a request it is best to
move long-running tasks off into a background process that is divorced
from http request/response cycle.
This new release of BackgrounDRb is also modular and can be used

A newbie question regarding BackgroundRb
Hi all,
I just read Ezra''s article on BackgroundRb and decided to use it one
of my projects. I installed the plugin into my rails project using
script/plugin and then ran rake backgroundrb:setup to copy the yml
scripts.
Now my backgroundrb.yml looks like

schedule support on latest svn, a question
I''m running the latest backgroundrb mainly for scheduled tasks support.
As per the documentation I created the backgroundrb_schedules.yml with
the following:
simple_label:
:class: :document_sorter_worker
:worker_method: :do_work
:job: :bleh
:trigger_args:
:start: <%= Time.now + 5.seconds %>
:end: <%= Time.now + 10.minutes

backgroundrb launches concurrent instances of same job
Hi there,
Backgroundrb is working pretty well for me but I have a job that launches
two of the same job, apparently a minute(?) apart from each other. Should
this be happening if I have repeat interval enabled with a job_key? It
seems like it should wait until the job is finished before launching a new
instance.

thread_pooling sleeping
I''m trying to run a single worker that could perform a periodic task
for a given user.
>From a controller, I imagine something like:
def start_job
MiddleMan.ask_work(:worker => :foo_worker, :worker_method => :perform_task,
:data => { :user_id = current_user.id })
end
def check_job
@status = MiddleMan.ask_status(:worker => :foo_worker)[current_user.id]

Backgroundrb Question
If I have a worker and everything set up and I call:
MiddleMan.ask_status(:worker => :foo_worker)
MiddleMan.ask_status(:worker => :foo_worker)
MiddleMan.ask_status(:worker => :foo_worker)
three times in quick succession. Will the tasks be queued up and
executed as the previous one finishes? Or is this going to ignore the 2
bottom requests? How does this work?
Do I absolutely need to

Recommendations for eternally-running backgroundrb workers?
I''ve got some workers that I want to have running all the time. Right
now I''m just launching them manually, by requesting a special page in
my rails app that includes lines like:
MiddleMan.new_worker(:class=> :receiver, :job_key=>:r,
:args=>{:sleep_time=>10})
This strikes me as a really weak way to fire up my workers. I
basically want to automate things so

{worker} after :end-time worker freaks out
Hi all,
i was using bdrb a while ago and it wasn''t stable enough in version
0.2.1 for doing the job - it loss jobs or did execute only the first one
invoked and so on.
Now i gave the new version a try and i found a bug at playing around.
When i start a worker_method over the normal Unix scheduler bdrb will
start as much as possible the worker_method after the :end-time is reached.

backgroundrb preview
Hi Ezra/skaar,
Wow man, the exercise was worth it. The connection closed problem with
socket as i mentioned in my earlier mails...completely disappeared,
and now i can connect only once to the socket and keep reading..till
end of its days.
Literally impossible with older release of backgroundrb.
This could also potentially solve the issues people were having with
ActiveRecord.

scheduling worker methods in rails
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1
Hi,
i''m trying desperately to schedule some worker methods within rails 2.0.2. The
problem is, both methods don''t even get called by BackgrounDRb.
my background.yml:
> ---
> :backgroundrb:
> :port: 11006
> :ip: 0.0.0.0
> ---
> :schedules:
> :server_worker:
> :update:

scheduled only called once
when working with the scheduler i found that using
:trigger_args: 0 * * * * * *
in config/backgroundrb_schedules.yml the worker gets only called once.
:trigger_args: "0 * * * * * *" works as expected.
Maybe this should be changed in the README ?

Updates and Fixes on Trunk
Hi,
I am pushing some updates and fixes that addresses much of the issues
that we talked about since last couple of days.
1. Use configuration option :debug_log: false to disable
backgroundrb_debug.log.
2. As shown below, use lazy_load option to disable aggressive loading
of models ( and somewhat stupid too).
3. MiddleMan.delete_worker(:worker => :foo_worker) will now ABORT the

right usage of bdrb
Hi,
i''m going to implement a syndication-service, which will get lists in
xml with some meta-data an enclosed video files, which will get encoded
at the end. The syndication run will be startet every five minutes of
a full hour.
So i thought to build 4 Worker. One for checking which feeds to
syndicate (syndication_worker) at a specific time, one for processing

cron like behaviour?
Hi
I have previously used railscron for server-side manipulation of the
database but had a heap of trouble working with it.
BackgrounDRB was suggested to me by a friend.
I upload some files via acts_as_attachment and these go lie in a dir
structure that i desire. What I want from the background process is to
periodically (not user initiated) do some file-structure manipulation i.e. I
want to
