Question: Reschedule a recurrent job?

[srehne]

Hi. Sorry for trying to get help to the gem in here.

I am trying to make the recurrent timing (run_every and run_at) dependant on a variable. I have my sample code here:

class RecurringSyncDataJob
    include Delayed::RecurringJob
    run_every Setting.value_of('ad_sync_data_delay_min').to_i.minutes
    run_at Time.now + Setting.value_of('ad_sync_data_delay_min').to_i.minutes
    timezone 'Europe/Copenhagen'
    queue 'low'
    def perform
    # DO THE STUFF I NEED DONE
      new_delay = Setting.value_of('ad_sync_data_delay_min').to_i.minutes
      new_time = Time.now + new_delay
      puts "new_delay: #{new_delay.to_s}, new_time: #{new_time.to_s}"
      schedule!(run_at: new_time, run_every: new_delay)
  end
end

So using the schedule command I hoped that I could change the current jobs run_at and run_every values dynamically. But this does not seem to work. The "puts" gives the right values - but the schedule does not update the times inside the Delayed::Job.

Has anyone an idea on how to solve this?

Kind regards Søren
