Rabbit MQ AMQP and DaemonKit

Question

I am trying to integrate the RabbitMq and AMQP along with the daemon kit to schedule the messaging tasks in Ruby on Rails platform. I am still in the experimental stage. I was referred to few blogs and websites and one of them is: http://www.ioncannon.net/programming/941/using-daemon-kit-and-robustthread-to-build-ruby-daemons/#evented-daemon

When I tried to run this command: daemon-kit -i amqp eventbased inside a Rails app, I got this error: No value provided for required arguments 'app_path'

I am not being able to figure out whats wrong with it. Kindly help me to resolve this issue.

Answer 1

So this error

No value provided for required arguments 'app_path'

appears cause you should provide path to daemon, like this

daemon-kit ~/projects/amqp-dev -i amqp

This will generate skeleton daemon in the amqp-dev folder.

Im not sure about daemon-kit compatibility with ruby frameworks, like sinatra or rails, but I belive its not really hard to get this work with them.
