README - WIP

Demo rails app using Sidekiq as job runner for ActiveJob

App description:

• Rails 5.1.4
• Ruby 2.5.0
• Sidekiq gem

Dependencies:

To run this app in development, you will need:

• Redis installed on your local machine, running on port 6379
• If you're running redis on another port, replace 6379 with your port in app/config/initializers/sidekiq.rb

How to run (development)

• Clone this repo with: git clone [email protected]:afinetooth/sidekiq-demo-001.git
• cd into the project directory: cd sidekiq-demo-001
• Make sure redis is running with: redis-cli ping should reply PONG; or, open a terminal window and start redis, typically something like: redis redis-server /usr/local/etc/redis.conf (depending on the location of your redis config)
• Open a second terminal window and start Sidekiq with: bundle exec sidekiq
• Open a third terminal window and run the example job in the rails runner:

rails runner "HardJob.perform_later(1,2,3)" && sleep 3 && tail -n 4 log/development.log

You should then see:

• A stdout message like this: Running via Spring preloader in process 6716
• A series of log message like:
