Delayed Job

[kagedwolf]

For the life of me, I can't figure out how to handle the delayed job daemon. You need to stop the daemon from the currently active release then start it from the new release path. How do you handle a failed release?

task :deploy => :environment do

  deploy do
    to :prepare do
      queue "cd #{deploy_to}/current && RAILS_ENV=production script/delayed_job stop"
    end

    invoke :'git:clone'
    invoke :'deploy:link_shared_paths'
    invoke :'bundle:install'
    invoke :'rails:db_migrate'
    invoke :'rails:assets_precompile'

    to :launch do
      queue "touch #{deploy_to}/shared/tmp/restart.txt"
      queue "cd #{deploy_to}/current && RAILS_ENV=production script/delayed_job start"
    end

  end

end

Is this even close?

I think I was on the right track. It wouldn't stop the delayed job deamon because I had started it with sudo as a different user than my deploy user. Here is my latest.

task :deploy do

  deploy do
    to :prepare do
      queue "cd #{deploy_to}/current ; RAILS_ENV=production script/delayed_job stop"
    end

    invoke :'git:clone'
    invoke :'deploy:link_shared_paths'
    invoke :'bundle:install'
    invoke :'rails:db_migrate'
    invoke :'rails:assets_precompile'

    to :launch do
      queue "cd #{deploy_to}/current ; mkdir -p tmp ; touch tmp/restart.txt"
      queue "cd #{deploy_to}/current ; mkdir -p tmp/pids ; RAILS_ENV=production script/delayed_job start"
    end

  end

end
