NameError (uninitialized constant Resque::Plugins::UniqueJob)

[leoplct]

I have installed the gem, required from initializers and restarted server. But I get this error.

Gemfile
gem "resque-loner"

config/initializers/resque.rb
require 'resque-loner'

RefreshItemsJob

class RefreshItemsJob < ApplicationJob
  include Resque::Plugins::UniqueJob

Sigh, yeah I get this as well, after upgrading to Resque v2.0.0—I think bundler downgraded resque-loner on my machine from v1.3.0 to v0.1.1 because v1.3.0 has a dependency on resque (~> 1.0) which isn't satisfied by 2.0.0, so it went with the latest version of resque-loner that didn't restrict the resque version.

This gem hasn't seen activity in a very very long time. Last commit was in 2014. No PRs or issues have been addressed in about as long. Might be time for a fork.

@leoplct @kjleitz resque-solo was a more recent rewrite/fork of this gem, and my own resque-unique_in_queue was a rewrite/fork of that. I'd recommend starting there, though it hasn't been been updated for Resque v2.0.0, it is far more updated than anything else. Happy to hand off maintenance to an interested party.

• resque-unique_at_runtime
  • Ensure that jobs are unique at runtime. A rewrite, and update, of resque-lonely_job. Upgrades should be mostly find/replace seamless. Compatible with resque-unique_by_arity, and resque-unique_in_queue.
• resque-unique_by_arity
  • Configure exacting specification of what "unique" means for a job. Compatible with resque-unique_at_runtime, and resque-unique_in_queue.
• resque-unique_in_queue
  • Ensure that jobs are unique at queue-time (and in-queue). A rewrite, and update, of resque-solo, which was a rewrite of resque_loner. Upgrades should be mostly find/replace seamless. Compatible with resque-unique_by_arity, and resque-unique_in_queue.

@pboling could you transfer the repo to the resque org? If folks are interested in maintaining they can pick up the torch! It would be great if you could submit a PR to add this comment to this repo to explain to folks their options.

Yeah, I will work on that. Great idea.
