- Update connection_pool to latest
- Handle shutdown more gracefully, wait for work to be finished
- Fix error handling (xshay)
- Add streaming batch support for adding elements to a batch one at a time rather than all at once.
- Completely switch to connection_pool for Redis backend. The Redis store no longer connects for you automatically, so it's mandatory to use connection_pool.
- Refactor thread usage so Queues can be properly shutdown and GC'd [GH-30]
- Use WeakRefs instead of ObjectSpace, as that plays better on JRuby.
- Can now pass a connection_pool in as a Redis instance.
- Switch Redis.new to Redis.connect so a :url option can be passed in. Nice for using on Heroku with Redis To Go.
- Allow stacking of error handlers, fixes GH-11
- You can now pass in an existing Redis instance - :store_config => [{ :redis => $redis }]
- Fix runtime error introduced in last release when running in Rails development environment
- Remove use of weakrefs to track queue instances, use ObjectSpace instead.
- Add support for Batch operations, providing an easy way to fan out operations and then collect results when completed.
- Added WorkQueue.immediate! and WorkQueue.queue! to switch background processing off and back on respectively. Nice to use when testing. (jc00ke, ryanlecompte)
- Added some ajax updates to the girl_friday status server. (jc00ke)
- Lazy initialize the worker actors to avoid dead thread problems with Unicorn forking processes.
- Add initial pass at girl_friday Rack server (see wiki). It's awful looking, trust me, help wanted.
- Initial release
