DJ not work; 'common problems' article can't help

[asiniy]

Hi!

I have some trouble. I create delayed job, run it, but with no effect. I saw the common problems article in wiki, but with no help.

Gemfile: gem 'delayed_job_active_record'

First: model Something

class Something < ActiveRecord::Base
  def create_something(txt)
    create do |something|
      text = txt
    end
  end

  handle_asynchronously :create_something, :run_at => Proc.new { 1.minutes.from_now }
end

Second: controller pages, action 'create'

  def create
    smth = Something.new
    smth.create_something(params[:text])
    redirect_to root_path
  end

So, when I send POST to pages path, I see new record in delayed_jobs table: id: 10 prority: 0 attempts: 0 handler: --- !ruby/object:Delayed::PerformableMethod object: !ruby/ActiveRecord:Something attributes: id: text: when_created: created_at: updated_at: method_name: :create_something_without_delay args:

• fripokaioj

where 'fripokaioj' - random text that I put in text field

et.c.

After a minute(:run_at => Proc.new { 1.minutes.from_now }) record disappearence. But with no changes in database. Why?

I try both: script/delayed_job start and rake jobs:work.

WIthout any effect. Log is empty.

What's wrong?

Jobs are deleted after they complete successfully. Sounds like it is running correctly. Maybe create is returning false for validation reasons? Try create! If it is an active record call.

I provided you my model code, there aren't validations here.

With create! similar effect. No changes in somethings table, and record from delayed_jobs is removed

[asiniy]

Daniel, could you give the code of successfully worked app with delayedjob?

[danielmorrison]

I'm not sure what your create_something method is supposed to do. You're calling create, which is an instance method in that context. You code might not be doing what you expect.

Daniel, I changed it:

model: self.create_something(txt)

controller: Something.create_something(params[:text])

but if I did this, how I can attach handle_asynchronously to code? It writes to me: undefined method create_something' for classSomething'

[betamatt]

create do |something|
  text = txt  <------- assigns to a local variable. doesn't do anything!
end

Closing as an open issue but, by all means, continue the discussion if desired.

Matt, dj still not work. Please reopen the issue.

I did this: def create_something(txt) Something.destroy_all end handle_asynchronously :create_something, :run_at => Proc.new { 1.minutes.from_now } But still don't work. DJ fill in and fill out records in delayed_jobs table, but without any changings in somethings table

[betamatt]

Alex, you cannot defer methods on unsaved models but you can defer the creation of a model as you seem to be trying to do. I think what you want is: Something.delay.create :text => 'my text'

If you still have questions, please post it on StackOverflow and drop a link here.
