TCP Socket communication between processes on Heroku worker dyno

Question

I\'d like to know how to communicate between processes on a Heroku worker dyno.

We want a Resque worker to read off a queue and send the data to another process runn

Answer 1

Reading your question, you've answered your own question, you cannot connect to localhost 12345.

This way of setting up your processes is a strange one as your running two processes within one Heroku dyno which removes a lot of the benefits of Heroku, i.e independant process scaling, isolation and clean depenedency declaration and isolation.

I would strongly recommend running this as two seperate processes that interact via a third party backing service.
