Resque::Notifier

Resque Notifier is a Resque plugin that sends notifications when a job fails.

Requirements

Ruby 2.2.0

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'resque-notifier'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install resque-notifier

Usage

This gem activates a notifier when environment variables are set.

example: Slack
RESQUE_HOOK=https://hooks.slack.com/services/<generated_hash>
RESQUE_CHANNEL="#channel-name"

Optional environment variable for linking to resque-web

example: if you access your failed jobs through resque-web on http://my.domain.com/resque/overview
RESQUE_HOST=http://my.domain.com

Add the Notifier backend to your existing Resque configuration (config/initializers/resque.rb)

require 'resque/failure/notifier'
Resque::Failure::Multiple.classes = [Resque::Failure::Redis, Resque::Failure::Notifier]
Resque::Failure.backend = Resque::Failure::Multiple

Example

If you are using Slack, you can define a channel to receive failed job messages. Multiple errors are ignored until they are cleared from Resque. Resque-Notifier will only send the first failed job of the same Class and Exception names. For example:

Worker: mac000dwright.local:28852:*
Class: http://my.domain.com/resque/failed/?class=User
Exception: NoMethodError
Error: undefined method `some_method' for nil:NilClass
