Delayed::Job's auto-retry feature is great, but there's a job that I want to manually retry now. Is there a method I can call on the job itself like...
Delayed::Job.all[0].perform
or run, or something. I tried a few things, and combed the documentation, but couldn't figure out how to execute a manual retry of a job.
Restart Delayed Job on deploy You must remove that one now if you have it. It basically does the same thing that we will add now but without using upstart. We will now create a new file that will host our start, stop and restart tasks. Create a file at lib/capistrano/tasks/delayed_job.
Delayed Job, also known as DJ, makes it easy to add background tasks to your Rails applications on Heroku. You can also use Resque and many other popular background queueing libraries. Delayed Job uses your database as a queue to process background jobs.
The most simple way to check whether delayed_job is running or not, is to check at locked_by field. This field will contain the worker or process locking/processing the job. Running Delayed::Job. where('locked_by is not null') will give you some results, if there are jobs running.
To manually call a job
Delayed::Job.find(10).invoke_job # 10 is the job.id
This does not remove the job if it is run successfully. You need to remove it manually:
Delayed::Job.find(10).destroy
Delayed::Worker.new.run(Delayed::Job.last)
This will remove the job after it is done.
You can do it exactly the way you said, by finding the job and running perform.
However, what I generally do is just set the run_at back so the job processor picks it up again.
