Resque Per-worker Logger Plugin

Tired of create mechanisms to isolate log files to each Resque worker in your application? The gem resque-logger gives you a simple plugin to create a log file based on queue name.

Configuration

Using a initializer

# config/initializers/resque.rb

log_path = File.join Rails.root, 'log'

config = {
  folder:     log_path,                 # destination folder
  class_name: Logger,                   # logger class name
  class_args: [ 'daily', 1.kilobyte ],  # logger additional parameters
  level:      Logger::INFO,             # optional
  formatter:  Logger::Formatter.new,    # optional
}

Resque.logger_config = config

Usage

Adding to a resque worker

# app/workers/my_killer_worker.rb

class MyKillerWorker
  extend Resque::Plugins::Logger

  @queue = :my_killer_worker_job
  @log_name = "my_killer_log_name.log" # Optional - defaults to using the queue name.

  def self.perform(args = {})
    (...)

    logger.info('it works!')

    (...)
  end
end
