登录 delay_job？

Question

I can't get any log output from delayed_job , and I'm not sure my jobs are starting.

Here's my Procfile:

web:     bundle exec rails server
worker:  bundle exec rake jobs:work
worker:  bundle exec clockwork app/clock.rb

And here's the job:

class ScanningJob
  def perform
    logger.info "logging from delayed_job"
  end

  def after(job)
    Rails.logger.info "logging from after delayed_job"
  end
end

I see that clockwork outputs to system out, and I can see worker executor starting, but I never see my log statements hit. I tried puts as well to no avail.

My clock file is pretty simple:

every(3.seconds, 'refreshlistings') { Delayed::Job.enqueue ScanningJob.new }

I just want to see this working, and lack of logging means I can't. What's going on here?

Answer 1

When I needed log output from Delayed Jobs, I found this question to be fairly helpful.

In config/initializers/delayed_job.rb I add the line:

Delayed::Worker.logger = Logger.new(File.join(Rails.root, 'log', 'dj.log'))

Then, in my job, I output to this log with:

Delayed::Worker.logger.info("Log Entry")

This results in the file log/dj.log being written to. This works in development, staging, and production environments.
