Question: Equivalent Sidekiq operations about go-workers HOT 4 CLOSED

I can't find any functions in here to support adding jobs like this, however it does look as though these jobs will be processed, by the scheduler.

from go-workers.

Hey all, just noticed this ticket, sorry for lack of a response.

There is currently support for polling from scheduled jobs, but it's currently only looking at the retry queue for failed jobs (which get retried with exponential backoff). Therefore, you cannot enqueue scheduled jobs or process scheduled jobs enqueued with perform_at or perform_in with go-workers at the moment.

Anytime you use perform_at or perform_in with Sidekiq, your job is added to a sorted set with the key schedule. So, processing of scheduled jobs with go-workers would be as simple as telling the scheduler to poll the schedule key in addition to the retry key.

Enqueuing schedule jobs would need to modify the enqueue method to take an at option which, if present, would cause the job to be added to the schedule key.

I don't have any time to work on this at the moment, but this is a feature I've been planning on implementing and will need at some point in the future.

Would happily work with someone who wants to send in a pull request.

Cheers,
John

I'm new to Go, but I'm pretty competent in a lot of other languages so should be able to handle this.

If I'm not mistaken then what you're saying is that all we need to do to process scheduled jobs is simply include the schedule key here:
https://github.com/jrallison/go-workers/blob/master/workers.go#L19

That would allow us to start processing the scheduled jobs because the scheduler already accepts multiple keys and selects over them (https://github.com/jrallison/go-workers/blob/master/scheduled.go#L35).

Yep, that looks correct. The more involved change is the ability to enqueue scheduled jobs, but I think there's value in just processing scheduled jobs enqueued via a sidekiq client in ruby as well.
