Run job multiple times, but never at the same time about sidekiq-scheduler HOT 3 CLOSED

We don't have this feature. Maybe you can check out https://github.com/mhenrixon/sidekiq-unique-jobs

I know sidekiq enterprise also has kind of a similar feature, which is Sidekiq Limiter, but that requires paying for sidekiq enterprise https://github.com/sidekiq/sidekiq/wiki/Ent-Rate-Limiting

@marcelolx Thanks for the response. Ok, then I will do it in user-land.

module Bookshelf
  module Jobs
    class Test < PayNRed::Job
      def perform
        return if old_job_is_still_running?
        # simulate a long-running job
        sleep 115
      end
    end
  end
end

Yes, that works if you record somewhere if the job is already running. Not sure how you're going to implement old_job_is_still_running?, assuming it is a flag in redis, keep in mind that if the job fails you want to set the key in redis to false otherwise, if a job fails no other job would run since it would continue to return true even though there isn't a job running.
