expirable_locking
Usage: Provides expirable locking for concurrent processing.
class MyModel < ActiveRecord::Base
extend ExpirableLocking
end
Process A: record.lock_with_expirey
Process A: => true
Process B: record.lock_with_expirey
Process B: => false
Process A: record.unlock
Process A: => true
Process B: record.lock_with_expirey
Process B: => true
By default the lock expires after 10 mintutes, this can be changed by overriding the lock_duration class method.
Note on Patches/Pull Requests
-
Fork the project.
-
Make your feature addition or bug fix.
-
Add tests for it. This is important so I don’t break it in a future version unintentionally.
-
Commit, do not mess with rakefile, version, or history. (if you want to have your own version, that is fine but bump version in a commit by itself I can ignore when I pull)
-
Send me a pull request. Bonus points for topic branches.
