Age	Commit message (Collapse)	Author
2015-03-09	Whitespace fixups.	Steve Kemp
	These were all identified and suggested by rubocop.
2015-03-09	Use def with parentheses when there are parameters.	Steve Kemp

2015-03-09	Removed spaces inside parenthesis.	Steve Kemp

2015-03-09	Prefer single-quotes when you don't need interpolation.	Steve Kemp
	So "foo" is less good than 'foo'.
2015-03-09	Don't use parenthesis aroudn conditions in an if.	Steve Kemp

2015-03-09	Do not use parentheses for method calls with no arguments.	Steve Kemp
	This is neater. Flagged by rubocop
2015-03-09	Omit the parentheses in defs when the method doesn't accept any arguments.	Steve Kemp
	This is neater.
2015-03-09	Avoid arguments we're not using.	Steve Kemp
	Having methods take arguments which are ignored is a misleading thing, prefix with "_" to make that explicit, or remove.
2015-02-18	Prefer "while true" to "while 1"	Steve Kemp
	Also only sleep between fetches if we couldn't find a job because the queue was empty.
2015-02-18	Minor formatting and commenting update.	Steve Kemp

2015-02-18	Updated the way we wait for jobs.	Steve Kemp
	The new approach uses the redis gems timeout functionality and ensures we never return a null-job. Instead we timeout and repeat with a stalling-sleep in the way. This closes #9553.
2015-02-17	fix the redis queue not to melt the cpu when polling redis for a job	Patrick J Cherry

2015-02-05	Simplify code by removing configuration.	Steve Kemp
	We now set the queue-address via $QUEUE_ADDRESS, otherwise we default to localhost. This works for both redis & beanstalkd.
2015-02-05	Simplify the flushing of queues.	Steve Kemp
	Now that we've moved to using redis by default the handling of queue-flushing needs to change. We can simply get rid of the busy-wait and run a redis "del" operation. With that in mind we've moved the flushing logic to our queue abstraction layer, and simplified our queue-helper script.
2015-01-29	Don't output messages unless $DEBUG=1	Steve Kemp

2015-01-19	Updated to use our queue-abstraction.	Steve Kemp
	This means we can queue/dequeue to either Redis or Beanstalkd.
2015-01-13	Added queue-abstraction layer.	Steve Kemp
	This is not-yet used, but it will-be shortly. The intention is that we can seamlessly swap out the queue implemention in the near future so that we'll be able to use Redis.
2012-11-20	Removed	Steve Kemp

2012-11-20	New stub interface.	Steve Kemp
