Using Dokku with Resque

Does anyone have experience using resque with dokku?

I've been searching all over and cannot figure out how to setup: - my Procfile - the connection between my app and the redis server (I've found the dokku-redis plugin for dokku)

Any pointers would be much appreciated!

Solution

  • First, link the redis service to your app:

    dokku redis:link SERVICE_NAME APP_NAME

    Next, add an entry to your procfile like so:

    resque: env TERM_CHILD=1 bundle exec rake resque:work

    Finally, scale up your resque workers:

    dokku ps:scale APP_NAME resque=1
