Hi,
Having difficulty (detailed below) executing queued jobs for a multi-
threaded worker. What controls when the jobs are actually executed?
Today we're trying to multi-thread our report server. Reports are
executed by a worker that basically looks like this:
########################################
class ReporterWorker < BackgrounDRb::MetaWorker
set_worker_name :reporter_worker
reload_on_schedule true
pool_size 5
def create(args = nil)
# This is called during startup
end
def run(arg)
thread_pool.defer(:submit,arg)
end
def submit(arg)
# report stuff here
persistent_job.finish!
end
end
#####################################
Jobs are submitted to the queue like so:
MiddleMan.worker(:reporter_worker).enq_run(:arg =>
params,:job_key => @report.job_key)
But nothing appears to be running. We used to call enq_submit
directly and the job would run just fine in the background. Now I'm
monitoring the db processes and I see nothing. Also,o nothing in the
backgroundrb_debug log file. Looking in the rails log I can see that
the rows were inserted into the queue table.
Does anybody have any ideas, or any experience using multithreading
with BackgrounDRB?
Thanks,
Adrian
