Upperkut

Background processing framework for Ruby applications.

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'upperkut'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install upperkut

Usage

Example 1 - Buffered Queue:

1) Create a Worker class and the define how to process the batch;

  class MyWorker
    include Upperkut::Worker

    # This is optional

    setup_upperkut do |config|
      # Define which redis instance you want to use
      config.strategy = Upperkut::Strategies::BufferedQueue.new(
        self,
        redis: { url: ENV['ANOTHER_REDIS_INSTANCE_URL'] },
        batch_size: 400, # How many events should be dispatched to worker.
        max_wait: 300    # How long Processor wait in seconds to process batch.
                         # even though the amount of items did not reached the
                         # the batch_size.
      )

      # How frequent the Processor should hit redis looking for elegible
      # batch. The default value is 5 seconds. You can also set the env
      # UPPERKUT_POLLING_INTERVAL.
      config.polling_interval = 4
    end

    def perform(batch_items)
      heavy_processing(batch_items)
      process_metrics(batch_items)
    end
  end

2) Start pushings items;

  Myworker.push_items(
    [
      {
        'id' => SecureRandom.uuid, 
        'name' => 'Robert C Hall', 
        'action' => 'EMAIL_OPENNED'
      }
    ]
  )

3) Start Upperkut;

  $ bundle exec upperkut --worker MyWorker --concurrency 10

Example 2 - Scheduled Queue:

1) Create a Worker class and the define how to process the batch;

  require 'upperkut/strategies/scheduled_queue'
  class MyWorker
    include Upperkut::Worker

    setup_upperkut do |config|
      config.strategy = Upperkut::Strategies::ScheduledQueue.new(self)
    end

    def perform(batch_items)
      heavy_processing(batch_items)
      process_metrics(batch_items)
    end
  end

2) Start pushings items with timestamp param;

  # timestamp is 'Thu, 10 May 2019 23:43:58 GMT'
  Myworker.push_items(
    [
      {
        'timestamp' => '1557531838', 
        'id' => SecureRandom.uuid, 
        'name' => 'Robert C Hall', 
        'action' => 'SEND_NOTIFICATION'
      }
    ]
  )

3) Start Upperkut;

  $ bundle exec upperkut --worker MyWorker --concurrency 10
