TireAsyncIndex

It's extension for Tire (client for the Elasticsearch search engine), which allow to update index of ActiveRecord/ActiveModel model using background job (based on Sidekiq or Resque).

Requirements: Ruby 1.9, 2.0, Rails => 3.0

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'tire_async_index'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install tire_async_index

You could configure TireAsyncIndex in initializer:

TireAsyncIndex.configure do |config|
    config.background_engine :sidekiq # or :resque
    config.use_queue         :high    # name of your queue
end

Just add AsyncCallbacks to your model:

class User < ActiveRecord::Base
    include Tire::Model::Search
    include Tire::Model::AsyncCallbacks

    ...
end

Also check that you include tire queue to sidekiq.yml or to -q param then you start sidekiq. That's all.

If you need more complex solution to define identificators and/or finder. You could simply add methods to override default:

class User < ActiveRecord::Base
    include Tire::Model::Search
    include Tire::Model::AsyncCallbacks

    def self.tire_async_finder(id)
      User.where(...).first
    end

    def async_tire_object_id
      "#{id}-#{name}"
    end
end

• Add support for custom filter / custom finders
