A resque plugin for specifying the queues a worker pulls from with wildcards, negations, or dynamic look up from redis.

Authored against Resque 1.15, so it at least works with that - try running the tests if you use a different version of resque

Usage:

Start your workers with a QUEUE that can contain '\*' for zero-or more of any character, '!' to exclude the following pattern, or @key to look up the patterns from redis.  Some examples help:

QUEUE='foo' rake resque:work

  Pulls jobs from the queue 'foo'

QUEUE='\*' rake resque:work

  Pulls jobs from any queue

QUEUE='\*foo' rake resque:work

  Pulls jobs from queues that end in foo

QUEUE='\*foo\*' rake resque:work

  Pulls jobs from queues whose names contain foo

QUEUE='\*foo\*,!foobar' rake resque:work

  Pulls jobs from queues whose names contain foo except the foobar queue

QUEUE='\*foo\*,!\*bar' rake resque:work

  Pulls jobs from queues whose names contain foo except queues whose names end in bar

QUEUE='@key' rake resque:work

  Pulls jobs from queue names stored in redis (use Resque.set\_dynamic\_queue("key", ["queuename1", "queuename2"]) to set them)

QUEUE='@' rake resque:work

  Pulls jobs from queue names stored in redis using the hostname of the worker

Resque.set\_dynamic\_queue("key", ["\*foo\*", "!\*bar"])

QUEUE='@key' rake resque:work

  Pulls jobs from queue names stored in redis, with wildcards/negations



There is also a tab in the resque-web UI that allows you to define the dynamic queues  To activate it, you need to require 'resque-dynamic-queues-server' in whatever initializer you use to bring up resque-web.
