延迟的工作人员需要从事工作

Question

My environment: CentOS, Rails 4, Ruby 2.

I'm running in Delayed Job infinite loop that getting in real time information from some another site.

The task is to run simultaniously many processes to get information from different sites. For each new process I add it to DJ queue by running search_engine.delay.track! .

So when I run one worker it successfully takes first job from queue and when job complete takes next. When I run more than one worker by ./bin/delayed_job -n5 start every DJ worker takes first job in queue and starts to track! it. But I want them to take only jobs, that was not been taked by other workers.

Answer 1

It was because of Delayed::Worker.max_run_time = 0 . The DJ thought, that work already done and runs it again.
