Redis Repeater

Constantly transfer all Redis items from one queue to the same queue on another machine. Great if you want to have multiple Resque/Redis machines, but only want the jobs to run on one of them. With redis-repeater, you temporarily stage them on local machines so your application doesn't need to make calls across the world.

Quick Start

1. Set up configuration files as below
2. gem install redis-repeater
3. redis-repeater start /path/to/config/directory/config.yml
4. redis-repeater stop

Configuration

servers:
  one:
    host: localhost
    port: 6379
  two:
    host: localhost
    port: 6380

repeats:
  - queue: queue_name
    source: one
    timeout: 0
    maintain_count: true
    destinations:
      - server: two
        queue: queue_name_change

log: /path/to/repeater.log

Resque Queues

If you specify a queue named resque:queue:*, all of your resque queues will be repeated

Lower repeats on individual queues will override these.

Maintaining Counts

In config.yml, if you include maintain_count:true, counts will be maintained for the number of repeated items in queues named: redis-repeater:#{queue_name}:count

Note on 0.2.0

Version 0.2.0 is a rewrite, and there are large changes to the configuration format. Please check your configs before upgrading.
