opsworks-resque cookbook

This is a very simple cookbook to deploy a pool of resque workers directly in Amazon OpsWorks

Requirements

Usage

Rails App Server layer type

If you're using a Rails App Server layer type you'll need to add the following custom recipes to your layer:

Setup

opsworks-resque::setup

Deploy

opsworks-resque::restart

Undeploy

opsworks-resque::stop

Other layer types

If you're using another layer type you'll need to configure some Rails recipes too:

Setup

opsworks-resque::setup

Configure

rails::configure

Deploy

deploy::rails opsworks-resque::restart

Undeploy

opsworks-resque::stop deploy::rails-undeploy

Attributes

It expects an array with the queues of workers to run, for example

"resque": {
  "app-name": {
    "workers": {
      "*": 1
    }
  }
}

if you're not using the Rails App Server layer type you'll also need to specify a rails_env like so:

"resque": {
  "app-name": {
    "rails_env": "development",
    "workers": {
      "*": 1
    }
  }
}

Recipes

opsworks-resque::setup - initial setup opsworks-resque::restart - restart the workers (after deploy) opsworks-resque::stop - stop the workers (shutdown)
