similar to: cron like behaviour?

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. --Backgroundrb_schedules.yml-- city_updater: :class: :city_updater_worker

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

Hi, I have backgroundrb running to decouple the execution of massive business logic from an ActionWebservice request. The service is designed to take some configuration parameters and fire a lot of background workers to do the requested work. Due to performance reasons I want to limit the number of workers to a maximum number of 30. But when I start a configuration that requires for example

Hi I have been using backgroundrb version 0.1 for a while. Unfortunately, I have to develop on windows :( It has worked fine for a while. However, this morning I started up and old app that worked fine and get this error. exec format error from running --trace I see that the error comes from backgroundrb_tasks.rb line 59 which reads: 59 `#{scripts_src}/start -d` Here is the context. desc

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: # def start_feed_worker #

I''m running the latest backgroundrb mainly for scheduled tasks support.

I''m new to Ruby, Rails and Ajax and I''m trying to do something seemingly simple. I am trying to use a value someone supplies in a form in another form that is dynamically generated using Ajax. I have the following code: <div id="race_table"> &nbsp; </div> <%= form_remote_tag(:update => "race_table", :url => { :action =>

I have installed backgroundrb. I can start it. I have read everything I can get my hands on, and have read the list for a few months. I have written a worker, and am ready to start. This worker reads a queue, and processes it (sends queued emails). Sends 10, sleeps for a minute, sends 10 until done - very straightforward. My question is, what would be the best way to run this? I have

I had a worker scheduled to run every minute with backgroundrb_schedules.yml: ebay_runner: :class: :ebay_auction_worker :job_key: :ebay_auction_runner :trigger_type: :cron_trigger :trigger_args: 0 * * * * * * This worker posts an auction to eBay from a queue of auctions every minute. I was having a problem where the worker would run ok the first time, but never any subsequent minutes

Hi gang, Thanks to other help I''ve gotten on this list, I''ve got backgroundrb up and running using postgres alongside my rails app. I''ve designed the system to have several eternally-running workers that periodically poll the database to see if there''s any work for them to do, and set things up in the config file to make them restart quickly if any of them

There is a line in the backgroundrb codebase: sleep 0.1 # TODO this is dangerous; could skip over some jobs Could this explain why my scheduler stops triggering? It only seems to work for about 12 - 24 hours before schedules are being skipped... Once I changed the times to using cron trigger in backgroundrb_schedules.yml and set the times to every 37th and 59th minute of the hour, instead of

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 ? regards tom -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL:

Hi all, i am using file_column to upload 3 images from the same form, they are all different names and DOM IDs so there isn''t a problem with the multiple upload.

Hello Folks- I am really happy to announce the release of BackgrounDRb 0.2.0 . This is a complete rewrite and re-architecture of this codebase. I want to thank skaar for all of his hard work. I put out a call for help with the new architecture and skaar stepped up bigtime. I had already written the new scheduler and cron compatible syntax and moved to multi process architecture. But he
