* http://adamthorsen.com/whinytasks
== DESCRIPTION:
WhinyTasks is sort of like ExceptionMailer but specifically designed for rake tasks that
run in the background. With any website, background jobs tend to accumulate and sometimes
it's hard to tell if they're working properly. WhinyTasks defines the whiny_task method,
which can be used in place of the task method and results in tasks that send emails to
a designated address when an exception occurrs during the execution of the task.
== FEATURES/PROBLEMS:
* Sends an email to a configurable address if an exception occurs during the
execution of a rake task.
== SYNOPSIS:
WhinyTasks::CONFIG = {
:to => "[email protected]",
:to_alias => "Alice",
:from => "[email protected]",
:from_alias => "Site Exception Notifier"
:whine_if => "Merb.environment == 'production'"
}
whiny_task :run_background_jobs => :environment do
raise "Uh oh!"
end
== REQUIREMENTS:
* requires rake
== INSTALL:
sudo gem install whinytasks
