activerecord-pluck-globalid

Helper method to easily get GlobalIDs from an ActiveRecord scope without instantiating AR objects.

Useful for mass-creating ActiveJob jobs from a specific subset of your records.

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'activerecord-pluck-globalid'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install activerecord-pluck-globalid

Usage

Use pluck_globalid when you want to instantiate ActiveJob from a scope:

user_gids = User.where(active: true).pluck_globalid
user_gids.each do |user_gid|
  UserWorker.perform_later(user_gid)
end

This avoids costly AR objects which can consume significant memory in such cases.
