An example Ruby on Rails 2.3 application that uses Ruby AMQP gem with Passenger

This app demonstrates how you can integrate Ruby amqp gem into a Ruby on Rails application that runs on Passenger.

Getting Started

gem install bundler

and then

bundle install

after that, launch passenger standalone (or use nginx/apache module)

bundle exec passenger start -p 3000

finally, visit http://localhost:3000/ with your browser and watch console output.

What does it do?

When application receives a request it is redirected to one of the free passenger workers. If there aren't any, passenger spawns one and gives control to it once it is loaded.

Key moment here is that you should start eventmachine reactor after the fork (if you use one of the smart* spawning methods), that's why PhusionPassenger.on_event(:starting_worker_process) is used. See config/initializers/amqp.rb for details.
