We’re thinking about using the rufus-scheduler gem on a Ruby on Rails project to do regular monitoring of a communication queue. Has anyone have experience using this gem on a Rails project? Anyone have strong preferences of an alternative scheduler?
I find cron and script/runner is usually enough, but I don’t think you’ll really go wrong with rufus-scheduler.
Just make sure the scheduled tasks you’re running are sufficiently abstracted so that if you decide to change your mind later on about how these tasks are run, it isn’t a big problem.
I say experiment and run with it if you like it.
