Doozque is a fork of Resque which replaces Redis for Doozer. It is an hacky experiment.
Resque is awesome and so is Redis. But Redis is not distributed*. If your redis server goes down, then so does your ability to process jobs. Doozer is distributed and can be setup in a fault tolerent way. You can loose doozerd instances and still process background jobs.
First start doozerd on 127.0.0.1:8046
. Add some more doozerd's if you
like. *NOTE* you must run this fork of fraggle-block
fraggle-block.
% cd examples/demo
% bundle
% bundle exec rackup &
% bundle exec rake doozque:worker QUEUE=*
Browse to http://127.0.0.1:9292
and run some jobs. Also check out

to see what's happening in your doozer db.
