Hi-- I'm looking around to find a good scheduler for offline computation for a Rails application. We're currently using cron, but we'd like some finer granularity and greater ease of modification of tasks.
I looked at rails_cron (deprecated and no longer available), daemon_generator (very simple and straightforward, but it throws errors when stopping and starting the daemons), backgrounDRB (seems complex and capable of far more than we need), and now OpenWFEru. Hopefully I'm not committing too great a faux pas not trying this out first, but I figured that I'd kick in the five minutes for a question post before spending the five hours to try everything out. Is using the OpenWFEru scheduler with Rails simply a matter of requiring "environment" in order to gain access to the ActiveRecord models and database in the application? What's the recommended method of starting and stopping the scheduler with regard to starting and stopping the Rails application? Is anyone else using OpenWFEru with Rails? Are there any gotchas?
