Installation

Add this line to your application’s Gemfile:

$ bundle add sidekiq-pauzer

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install sidekiq-pauzer

Usage

require "sidekiq"
require "sidekiq/pauzer"

Sidekiq::Pauzer.configure do |config|
  # Set paused queues local cache refresh rate in seconds.
  # Default: 5.0
  config.refresh_rate = 10.0
end

When running in forked environment (e.g., Puma web server), you also need to call Sidekiq::Pauzer.startup on fork:

# file: config/puma.rb
on_worker_boot { Sidekiq::Pauzer.startup }

API

This gem enhances Sidekiq’s Queue API with:

Sidekiq::Queue.new("critical").paused? # => true|false
Sidekiq::Queue.new("critical").pause!
Sidekiq::Queue.new("critical").unpause!

Those translates to:

Sidekiq::Pauzer.paused?("critical") # => true|false
Sidekiq::Pauzer.pause!("critical")
Sidekiq::Pauzer.unpause!("critical")

Adding Pause/Resume Button to the Queues Tab

If you’re not overriding Sidekiq::Web.views path, then you can override default queues tab with:

require "sidekiq/web"
require "sidekiq/pauzer/web"

Note	If you are using custom Sidekiq views path, then you will need to call (after requiring sidekiq/pauzer/web): Sidekiq::Pauzer::Web.unpatch_views!.

Supported Ruby Versions

This library aims to support and is tested against the following Ruby versions:

• Ruby 3.0.x

• Ruby 3.1.x

• Ruby 3.2.x

If something doesn’t work on one of these versions, it’s a bug.

This library may inadvertently work (or seem to work) on other Ruby versions, however support will only be provided for the versions listed above.

If you would like this library to support another Ruby version or implementation, you may volunteer to be a maintainer. Being a maintainer entails making sure all tests run and pass on that implementation. When something breaks on your implementation, you will be responsible for providing patches in a timely fashion. If critical issues for a particular implementation exist at the time of a major release, support for that Ruby version may be dropped.

Supported Sidekiq Versions

This library aims to support and work with following Sidekiq versions:

• Sidekiq 7.2.x
