This is a Sensu plugin that allows monitoring and alerting if the latency of a Sidekiq queue exceeds a threshold value. It talks directly to Redis, so that it doesn't need to authenticate to the Sidekiq web interface.

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install sensu-plugins-sidekiq-latency

Checks the latency for a particular sidekiq queue, and warns if it exceeds thresholds.

• --url or -u - required URL of the Redis instance that Sidekiq is using.
• --queue or -q - required name of the sidekiq queue to monitor.
• --warn or -w - threshold (in seconds) for a warning to be issued.
• --crit or -c - threshold (in seconds) for a critical alert to be sent.

After checking out the repo, run bundle install --path vendor/bundle to install dependencies. Then, run bundle exec rake spec to run the "tests".

To install this gem onto your local machine, run bundle exec rake install. To release a new version, update the version number in lib/version.rb, and then run bundle exec rake release, which will create a git tag for the version, push git commits and tags, and push the .gem file to rubygems.org.
