Overview

A Resque::Job represents a unit of work. Each job lives on a single queue and has an associated payload object. The payload is a hash with two attributes: ‘class` and `args`. The `class` is the name of the Ruby class which should be used to run the job. The `args` are an array of arguments which should be passed to the Ruby class’s ‘perform` class-level method.

You can manually run a job using this code:

job = Resque::Job.reserve(:high)
klass = Resque::Job.constantize(job.payload['class'])
klass.perform(*job.payload['args'])

Class Method Details

.create(queue, klass, *args) ⇒ Object

Creates a job by placing it on a queue. Expects a string queue name, a string class name, and an optional array of arguments to pass to the class’ ‘perform` method.

Raises an exception if no queue or class is given.

# File 'lib/resque/job.rb', line 43

def self.create(queue, klass, *args)
  Resque.validate(klass, queue)

  if Resque.inline?
    # Instantiating a Resque::Job and calling perform on it so callbacks run
    # decode(encode(args)) to ensure that args are normalized in the same manner as a non-inline job
    new(:inline, {'class' => klass, 'args' => decode(encode(args))}).perform
  else
    Resque.push(queue, :class => klass.to_s, :args => args)
  end
end

.destroy(queue, klass, *args) ⇒ Object

Removes a job from a queue. Expects a string queue name, a string class name, and, optionally, args.

Returns the number of jobs destroyed.

If no args are provided, it will remove all jobs of the class provided.

That is, for these two jobs:

{ ‘class’ => ‘UpdateGraph’, ‘args’ => [‘defunkt’] } { ‘class’ => ‘UpdateGraph’, ‘args’ => [‘mojombo’] }

The following call will remove both:

Resque::Job.destroy(queue, 'UpdateGraph')

Whereas specifying args will only remove the 2nd job:

Resque::Job.destroy(queue, 'UpdateGraph', 'mojombo')

This method can be potentially very slow and memory intensive, depending on the size of your queue, as it loads all jobs into a Ruby array before processing.

      end
    end
  else
    destroyed += redis.lrem(queue, 0, encode(:class => klass, :args => args))
  end

  destroyed
end

.reserve(queue) ⇒ Object

Given a string queue name, returns an instance of Resque::Job if any jobs are available. If not, returns nil.
