Background jobs support

[SergeyKishenin]

Hi,

Video converting sometimes takes a long time. So is it possible to combine background jobs support like Sidekiq, Resque or Delayed Job with your gem?

[rheaton]

We definitely hooked this up to resque. I'm sure you could get it to work with delayed job. If you have multiple servers you will need to make sure you upload to the one that the jobs run, use s3, or something. :)

Thanks for your reply.
But I still have one more question. Have you achieved this with carrierwave_backgrounder gem or you did something else?

[rheaton]

I believe we used the carrierwave_background gem at one point. I'm not actively working on the project that uses this gem, but I think all uploading and processing is done as a service, so having it inline is not an issue. @coreyti can you speak to this?

Hi @SergeyKishenin and @rheaton, we do (still) use carrierwave_backgrounder for handling our video upload jobs. That gem currently provides support for six different queuing backends.

Hope that helps.

That's how I thought. Thank you so much
