A Resque plugin. Requires Resque 1.9.10.

Implements an approximation of DelayedJob's send_later on resque.

Usage 1: Delaying an instance method call for any object that has a class find(id) method (e.g., Rails ActiveRecord):

The class itself:

class TestThing < ActiveRecord::Base
  include Resque::Plugins::SendLater

  def method_to_delay(arg1, arg2)
    <some code>
  end
end

Delaying a method call on any instance of the class:

t = TestThing.find(id) t.send_later(:method_to_delay, a1, a2)

Usage 2: Delaying a class method call on any class

The class itself:

class TestThing
  include Resque::Plugins::SendLater

  def TestThing.class_method_to_delay(arg1, arg2)
    <some code>
  end
end

Delaying a method call:

TestThing.send_later(:class_method_to_delay, a1, a2)

No options for now.
