Qu-Mongoid

This gem provides a Mongoid 3 / Moped backend for the queueing library Qu. See the documentation for Qu for more information.

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'qu'
gem 'qu-mongoid'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install qu-mongoid

Tested in Ruby 1.9.3, 2.0.0, JRuby (1.9 mode), and Rubinius (1.9 mode). Ruby 1.8.7 is not supported because Mongoid 3 only supports Ruby 1.9+.

Starting with version 3, Mongoid uses its own mongoDB driver (Moped) instead of the official 10gen ruby driver (mongo). To avoid loading both drivers, I ported the Mongo backend to Mongoid/Moped.

Mongoid version 2 and below uses the mongo driver, so use qu-mongo if you are on Mongoid 2.

Qu-Mongoid will automatically connect to the default session configured in mongoid.yml. If a default session is not configured, it will attempt to read from ENV['MONGOHQ_URL'] and ENV['MONGOLAB_URI'], so it should work on Heroku. If you need to use a different Mongoid session, you should do the following:

Qu.configure do |c|
  c.backend.session = :qu
end

You may also configure the Qu connection using the code below, but WARNING: if you are running your workers in threads, this configuration is NOT recommended. This is because Mongoid uses a separate connection on each thread, so only the original thread will use the configured connection. New threads will use the default Mongoid session as described above.

Qu.configure do |c|
  c.connection = Mongoid::Sessions.with_name(:qu) # New threads will not use this configured connection.
end
