How to install RailsCron?
Hi, I would like to start running a background procedure once a user logs in to his account on the website. For this I am considering using the RailsCron object. However, I am not able to download it. I am new to Rails. Can someone give me the excat command I should use to get RailsCron? Can someone suggest a better way of running a procedure in the background? Thanks -Yash -- Posted via

drb problem? ringy-dingy won't answer...
The following code works fine as long as I don''t try to run it through the distributed server. It doesn''t get there... It runs fine out of delayed_job, runs fine if called directly. But if ''distrib'' is true (the default) it runs right up to the call to the server and right past it without getting to the server or raising any errors. Am using Ruby 1.8.6.26 ,

Rails and Offline processing
How are you guys handling threads or server processes that have to, for example, process the data in your application on a periodic basis? Cron jobs can do it and then run on the database. But, are there ways to launch threads within the rails application itself. I have heard of WebBrick ways, but I am working with lighttpd, fastcgi? (textdrive if you are really interested).

Speeding up ActiveRecord creation?
My completely empty model (no validation callbacks etc etc) takes an average of 0.05 seconds to create, at least according to Benchmark.realtime{200.times{Message.create(:from => "me@here.com", :message_type => ''email'', :subject => "hello", :body => "goodbye", :sent_at => Time.now)}}/200 That''s a little slower than

Hello, I need to put a script in place for updating a local database with a remote resource periodically. It should be started alongside the server (or inside it, whatever) and be run as long as the server running my rails app is up an running. Any thoughts on how to accomplish this?

RailsCron 0.2 plugin
I received feedback from some of you, saying that it would be cool if RailsCron was even easier to manage. So I implemented a graceful start/restart inside of the plugin''s init.rb. If you don''t like it, comment it out and send me the feedback. Also, I finished an update to RailsCron that allows you to attach asynchronous processing methods to your ActiveRecord models. i.e.:

RailsCron 0.2.2, please update
I updated RailsCron to fix some threading issues with ActiveRecord. Please update if you were on 0.2.1. Also, I am still working on a good unit test strategy (its tricky because I would think that the tests must occur over a lot of time), but haven''t had/made time to give it its due.

Hi, I am new to ruby and to rails, but I like what I see so far.

The thread object is stored in the session and I then allow the user to control the task from the browser(like stop it). Is the same

Multiple backgroundrb servers?
What are people are doing when they need to deploy a new code base? You can''t just restart backgroundrb, because then you lose any long-running backgroundrb processes. But then you''d conceivably have to wait several hours for all your procs to complete before pushing out the new code base. I was originally thinking that during code deploys, we''d start up a second
