How do I inspect what was the last failed job in Resque?

I know it returns a hash, but its strange how the syntax goes.. I'm trying to find out what the last one is.

If I do this :

Resque.info[:failed] # -> 68

So assuming there's 68 failed jobs, when I do this :

Resque::Failure.all()

It only returns one job ( I believe its the first job ).

I think this is just a syntactical error on my part. Because I've also seen this :

Resque::Failure.all(0, 20)

Which I believe would pull an array of indices between 0 and 20.

So.. anyone know the syntactical clause to pull just the last failed job?

Solution

  • With Resque::Failure.all(0, 20) you will give 1st param as the start point and second param as the number of results.

    Resque::Failure.all(0, 1)

    is the correct syntax to get the last failure, if they are ordered DESC

    EDIT:

    They are ordered ASC, so:

    Resque::Failure.all((Resque::Failure.count - 1), 1)
