These steps are similar (but not identical) to the steps demonstrated in the Jobly screencast.
=== Step 1: Setup a Jobly workspace
# Create a new workspace (directory)
$ jobly init myjobs
# Make sure dependencies are installed
$ cd myjobs
$ bundle install
# Start the web server and the worker
$ foreman start
# Alternative:
# You may also start the server and worker manually in two separate screens
$ jobly server
$ jobly worker
==- Step 2: Verify the server is working
Go to localhost:3000 - you should see the Sidekiq dashboard.
==- Step 3: Execute a job through the API
Go to localhost:3000/do/Hello - you should receive a JSON encoded acknowledgement.
Go back to the dashboard and view the job's status.
==- Step 4: Execute a job through the CLI
Form the same workspace directory, run:
# Execute the job directly (without the server)
$ jobly run Ping
# Send the job through the Web API server
$ jobly send Ping
# Send the job through the Web API server, with parameters
$ jobly send Hello name:Arnold
Finally, view the localhost:3000/statuses page to ensure your jobs were executed.
