Schedule not being reloaded when starting Rails app about sidekiq-scheduler HOT 10 CLOSED

The schedule should we reloaded fresh everytime you start your app, ill try to reproduce this and comment back.

What version of sidekiq-scheduler are you using?

from sidekiq-scheduler.

@adrian-gomez awesome, thanks. would appreciate any pointers.

I'm using the latest - v1.0.

from sidekiq-scheduler.

I'm seeing the same issue but only with the rails console, if i start the server or sidekiq the schedules are loaded properly. Can you confirm this?

I'll look into this issue to find out what is causing this behavior.

from sidekiq-scheduler.

@adrian-gomez I was able to confirm that I just print out Sidekiq.scheduler into a view and then fire up bundle exec rails s, then change the schedule, restart bundle exec rails s, the output of the view does change. So yes, it does appear to be the console.

There also seems like modifying the initializer (config/initializers/sidekiq_scheduler.rb) causes the schedule to reload :S

This is really strange.

@adrian-gomez I think it's the Rails spring preloader.

vagrant@precise64:/vagrant$ spring status
Spring is not running.
vagrant@precise64:/vagrant$ rails c
Loading development environment (Rails 4.1.4)
[1] pry(main)> puts Sidekiq.schedule
{"queue_delayed_order_notifications"=>{"every"=>["1m"], "class"=>"DelayedOrderNotifications", "description"=>"This job looks for delayed orders and triggers the appropriate notifications"}}
=> nil
[2] pry(main)> exit
vagrant@precise64:/vagrant$ spring status
Spring is running:

 4759 spring server | vagrant | started 25 secs ago
 4763 spring app    | vagrant | started 25 secs ago | development mode                
vagrant@precise64:/vagrant$ spring stop
Spring stopped.


[ Change the schedule from 1m to 1h ]


vagrant@precise64:/vagrant$ rails c
Loading development environment (Rails 4.1.4)
[1] pry(main)> puts Sidekiq.schedule
{"queue_delayed_order_notifications"=>{"every"=>["1h"], "class"=>"DelayedOrderNotifications", "description"=>"This job looks for delayed orders and triggers the appropriate notifications"}}
=> nil

By manually stopping Spring, it seems to work.

Ok i'll close this issue if you are ok with it.

I haven't looked into spring at all, maybe there is a workaround for this that i'm not aware of.

from sidekiq-scheduler.

Sure, I'm fine with closing this now that I understand what's going on.

Apparently, Spring reloads the initializers if they are changed, but not if they are unmodified, so that's what's happening.

It appears to be possible to tell Spring to do things before loading: https://github.com/rails/spring#running-code-before-forking

So this could potentially be used to clean this up.

It might be worth putting a note in the README about this, in case anyone else encounters this.

from sidekiq-scheduler.

I'll great if you could add that comment to in the README :D
