Method: Delayed::Worker#name

Defined in:
lib/delayed/worker.rb

#name ⇒ Object

Every worker has a unique name which by default is the pid of the process. There are some advantages to overriding this with something which survives worker retarts: Workers can# safely resume working on tasks which are locked by themselves. The worker will assume that it crashed before.
