First, you probably want to install beanstalkd, which powers the job queues. Depending on your platform, this should be as simple as (for Ubuntu):
$ sudo apt-get install beanstalkd
Add this line to your application's Gemfile:
gem 'backburner'
And then execute:
$ bundle
Or install it yourself as:
$ gem install backburner
Backburner is extremely simple to setup. Just configure basic settings for backburner:
Backburner.configure do |config|
config.beanstalk_url = ["beanstalk://127.0.0.1", "..."]
config.tube_namespace = "some.app.production"
config.on_error = lambda { |e| puts e }
config.max_job_retries = 3 # default 0 retries
config.retry_delay = 2 # default 5 seconds
config.default_priority = 65536
config.respond_timeout = 120
config.default_worker = Backburner::Workers::Simple
config.logger = Logger.new(STDOUT)
end
The key options available are:
