Resque tasks, worker, web, GenericJob setup for Rails

Usage

resque-web
QUEUE='*' COUNT=3 rake resque:workers &

GenericJob.publish(Product, :reindex_all, :args=> [{:limit=>1000}]

Setup

#append to Rakefile
require 'resque/tasks'
namespace :resque do
  task :setup => :environment
end

class GenericJob
  @queue = :generic

  def self.perform(klass, method, options={})
    options = options.with_indifferent_access
    if options.has_key?(:args)
      klass.constantize.send(method, *options[:args])
    else
      klass.constantize.send(method)
    end
  end

  def self.publish(klass, method, options={})
    Resque.enqueue(self, klass.to_s, method.to_s, options)
  end
end


If you plan to process instances of AR with this setup, be sure to add serialize_ar / deserialize_ar from solving background processing with a single generic background-job
