Delayed Job Maintenance

Extends capistrano-maitenance to stop delayed job while the maintenance page is displayed.

After capistrano-maintenence is installed and configured, your application's web interface will be disabled when the maintenance page is written to the server. To also disable backend processing in delayed job, you need to configure capistrano-maintenance to also write to the delayed-job servers.

In your deployment configuration, add the queue server, or whichever role you use for capistrano deployments to your delayed job servers:

set :maintenance_roles, -> { roles([:web, :queue]) }

By default, capistrano-maintnance will write the maintenance template to "#{shared_path}/public/system". However, shared_path is a capistrano variable and is not available in delayed_job. If this is different than Rails.root.join("public", "system") or you are using a different maintenance file, you will need to configure the maintenance file:

Add this as an initializer:

DelayedJobMaintenance.configure do |config|
  config.maintenance_file = Rails.root.join("public", "system", "maintenance.html")
end

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'delayed_job_maintenance'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install delayed_job_maintenance
