Rails help creating a delayed_job from a rake file

问题

How do I create a delayed job from a rake file. How should I move it into a controller and create a delayed_job that runs the task every 15 minutes.

Here is an example how my rake file:

namespace :reklamer do

    task :runall => [:iqmedier, :euroads, :mikkelsen] do
      # This will run after all those tasks have run
    end

      task :iqmedier => :environment do
              require 'Mechanize'
              agent = WWW::Mechanize.new
              agent.get("http://www.iqmedier.dk")
      end
      task :euroads => :environment do
            require 'Mechanize'
            require 'pp'
            agent = Mechanize.new { |agent|
      end

      task :mikkelsen => :environment do
            require 'Mechanize'
            agent = Mechanize.new
            agent.get("http://affilate.mikkelsenmedia.dk/partnersystem/mylogins.php")
       end
    end

What should I change to be a delayed job (https://github.com/collectiveidea/delayed_job)?

Suggest you take a look at SimpleWorker, a cloud-based background processing / worker queue for Ruby apps. It's designed for offloading tasks, running scheduled jobs, and scaling out to handle many parallel jobs at once. It's simple, affordable, and scalable.

(Disclosure, I work for the company.)

You create your workers (in app/worker) and then in your controllers and elsewhere queue them up to run right away or schedule them for later or on a recurring basis with just a few lines of code. Here's a basic example.

  worker = ReportWorker.new
  worker.user_id = @current_user.id
  worker.schedule(:start_at => 1.hours.since, :run_every => 900)

  #Or to run once right away
  #worker.queue

The ReportWorker class would contain the logic to create the report for the current user and sent it or post it needed.

DelayedJob alone will not help you since it is based around one-time jobs. You will still need something that runs on a regular basis that creates these jobs.

Assuming:

you're on Heroku and can only get a 1-hour cron
you need to run a job every 15 minutes

You can do something like this...

Make a class for your jobs:

class MechanizeJob < Struct.new(:url)
  def perform
    agent = Mechanize.new
    agent.get(url)
  end
end

Schedule the jobs from your Rakefile:

task :schedulejobs => :environment do
  urls = ["http://...", "http://...", "http://..."]
  urls.each do |url|
    # 1 is the job priority
    Delayed::Job.enqueue MechanizeJob.new(url), 1, Time.now
    Delayed::Job.enqueue MechanizeJob.new(url), 1, 15.minutes.from_now
    Delayed::Job.enqueue MechanizeJob.new(url), 1, 30.minutes.from_now
    Delayed::Job.enqueue MechanizeJob.new(url), 1, 45.minutes.from_now
  end
end

This will run a job per url every 15 minutes.
