+Installation
+------------
+
+Add the gem to your Gemfile:
+
+    gem 'resque'
+
+Next, install it with Bundler:
+
+    $ bundle
+
+#### Rack
+
+In your Rakefile, or some other file in `lib/tasks` (ex: `lib/tasks/resque.rake`), load the resque rake tasks:
+
+``` ruby
+require 'resque'
+require 'resque/tasks'
+require 'your/app' # Include this line if you want your workers to have access to your application
+```
+
+#### Rails 3+
+
+To make resque specific changes, you can override the `resque:setup` job in `lib/tasks` (ex: `lib/tasks/resque.rake`). GitHub's setup task looks like this:
+
+``` ruby
+task "resque:setup" => :environment do
+  Grit::Git.git_timeout = 10.minutes
+end
+```
+
+We don't want the `git_timeout` as high as 10 minutes in our web app,
+but in the Resque workers it's fine.
+
+Running Workers
+---------------
+
+Resque workers are rake tasks that run forever. They basically do this:
+
+``` ruby
+start
+loop do
+  if job = reserve
+    job.process
+  else
+    sleep 5 # Polling frequency = 5
+  end
+end
+shutdown
+```
+
+Starting a worker is simple:
+
+    $ QUEUE=* rake resque:work
+
+Or, you can start multiple workers:
+
+    $ COUNT=2 QUEUE=* rake resque:workers
+
+This will spawn two Resque workers, each in its own process. Hitting
+ctrl-c should be sufficient to stop them all.
+
+#### Priorities and Queue Lists
+
+Resque doesn't support numeric priorities but instead uses the order
+of queues you give it. We call this list of queues the "queue list."
+
+Let's say we add a `warm_cache` queue in addition to our `file_serve`
+queue. We'd now start a worker like so:
+
+    $ QUEUES=file_serve,warm_cache rake resque:work
+
+When the worker looks for new jobs, it will first check
+`file_serve`. If it finds a job, it'll process it then check
+`file_serve` again. It will keep checking `file_serve` until no more
+jobs are available. At that point, it will check `warm_cache`. If it
+finds a job it'll process it then check `file_serve` (repeating the
+whole process).
+
+In this way you can prioritize certain queues. At GitHub we start our
+workers with something like this:
+
+    $ QUEUES=critical,archive,high,low rake resque:work
+
+Notice the `archive` queue - it is specialized and in our future
+architecture will only be run from a single machine.
+
+At that point we'll start workers on our generalized background
+machines with this command:
+
+    $ QUEUES=critical,high,low rake resque:work
+
+And workers on our specialized archive machine with this command:
+
+    $ QUEUE=archive rake resque:work
+
+#### Running All Queues
+
+If you want your workers to work off of every queue, including new
+queues created on the fly, you can use a splat:
+
+    $ QUEUE=* rake resque:work
+
+Queues will be processed in alphabetical order.
+
+Or, prioritize some queues above `*`:
+
+    # QUEUE=critical,* rake resque:work
+
+#### Process IDs (PIDs)
+
+There are scenarios where it's helpful to record the PID of a resque
+worker process.  Use the PIDFILE option for easy access to the PID:
+
+    $ PIDFILE=./resque.pid QUEUE=file_serve rake resque:work
+
+#### Running in the background
+
+There are scenarios where it's helpful for
+the resque worker to run itself in the background (usually in combination with
+PIDFILE).  Use the BACKGROUND option so that rake will return as soon as the
+worker is started.
+
+    $ PIDFILE=./resque.pid BACKGROUND=yes QUEUE=file_serve rake resque:work
+
+#### Polling frequency
+
+You can pass an INTERVAL option which is a float representing the polling frequency.
+The default is 5 seconds, but for a semi-active app you may want to use a smaller value.
+
+    $ INTERVAL=0.1 QUEUE=file_serve rake resque:work
+
+The Front End
+-------------
+
+Resque comes with a Sinatra-based front end for seeing what's up with
+your queue.
+
+![The Front End](https://camo.githubusercontent.com/64d150a243987ffbc33f588bd6d7722a0bb8d69a/687474703a2f2f7475746f7269616c732e6a756d7073746172746c61622e636f6d2f696d616765732f7265737175655f6f766572766965772e706e67)
+
+#### Standalone
+
+If you've installed Resque as a gem running the front end standalone is easy:
+
+    $ resque-web
+
+It's a thin layer around `rackup` so it's configurable as well:
+
+    $ resque-web -p 8282
+
+If you have a Resque config file you want evaluated just pass it to
+the script as the final argument:
+
+    $ resque-web -p 8282 rails_root/config/initializers/resque.rb
+
+You can also set the namespace directly using `resque-web`:
+
+    $ resque-web -p 8282 -N myapp
+
+or set the Redis connection string if you need to do something like select a different database:
+
+    $ resque-web -p 8282 -r localhost:6379:2
+
+#### Passenger
+
+Using Passenger? Resque ships with a `config.ru` you can use. See
+Phusion's guide:
+
+Apache: <https://www.phusionpassenger.com/library/deploy/apache/deploy/ruby/>
+Nginx: <https://www.phusionpassenger.com/library/deploy/nginx/deploy/ruby/>
+
+#### Rack::URLMap
+
+If you want to load Resque on a subpath, possibly alongside other
+apps, it's easy to do with Rack's `URLMap`:
+
+``` ruby
+require 'resque/server'
+
+run Rack::URLMap.new \
+  "/"       => Your::App.new,
+  "/resque" => Resque::Server.new
+```
+
+Check `examples/demo/config.ru` for a functional example (including
+HTTP basic auth).
+
+#### Rails 3+
+
+You can also mount Resque on a subpath in your existing Rails 3 app by adding `require 'resque/server'` to the top of your routes file or in an initializer then adding this to `routes.rb`:
+
+``` ruby
+mount Resque::Server.new, :at => "/resque"
+```

-Workers
--------
+#### Rails example
 
-Resque workers are rake tasks that run forever. They basically do this:
+If you are using ActiveJob here's how your job definition will look:
 
 ``` ruby
-start
-loop do
-  if job = reserve
-    job.process
-  else
-    sleep 5 # Polling frequency = 5
+class ArchiveJob < ApplicationJob
+  queue_as :file_serve
+
+  def perform(repo_id, branch = 'master')
+    repo = Repository.find(repo_id)

+```
+
+``` ruby
+class Repository
+  def async_create_archive(branch)
+    ArchiveJob.perform_later(self.id, branch)
   end
 end
-shutdown
 ```
 
-Starting a worker is simple. Here's our example from earlier:
+It is important to run `ArchiveJob.perform_later(self.id, branch)` rather than `Resque.enqueue(Archive, self.id, branch)`.
+Otherwise Resque will process the job without actually doing anything.
+Even if you put an obviously buggy line like `0/0` in the `perform` method,
+the job will still succeed.
 
-    $ QUEUE=file_serve rake resque:work
 
-By default Resque won't know about your application's
-environment. That is, it won't be able to find and run your jobs - it
-needs to load your application into memory.
+Configuration
+-------------
+
+#### Redis
+
+You may want to change the Redis host and port Resque connects to, or
+set various other options at startup.
+
+Resque has a `redis` setter which can be given a string or a Redis
+object. This means if you're already using Redis in your app, Resque
+can re-use the existing connection.
+
+String: `Resque.redis = 'localhost:6379'`
+
+Redis: `Resque.redis = $redis`
+
+For our rails app we have a `config/initializers/resque.rb` file where
+we load `config/resque.yml` by hand and set the Redis information
+appropriately.
 
-If we've installed Resque as a Rails plugin, we might run this command
-from our RAILS_ROOT:
+Here's our `config/resque.yml`:
 
-    $ QUEUE=file_serve rake environment resque:work
+    development: localhost:6379
+    test: localhost:6379
+    staging: redis1.se.github.com:6379
+    fi: localhost:6379
+    production: <%= ENV['REDIS_URL'] %>
 
-This will load the environment before starting a worker. Alternately
-we can define a `resque:setup` task with a dependency on the
-`environment` rake task:
+And our initializer:
 
 ``` ruby
-task "resque:setup" => :environment
+rails_root = ENV['RAILS_ROOT'] || File.dirname(__FILE__) + '/../..'
+rails_env = ENV['RAILS_ENV'] || 'development'
+config_file = rails_root + '/config/resque.yml'
+
+resque_config = YAML::load(ERB.new(IO.read(config_file)).result)
+Resque.redis = resque_config[rails_env]
 ```
 
-GitHub's setup task looks like this:
+Easy peasy! Why not just use `RAILS_ROOT` and `RAILS_ENV`? Because
+this way we can tell our Sinatra app about the config file:
+
+    $ RAILS_ENV=production resque-web rails_root/config/initializers/resque.rb
+
+Now everyone is on the same page.
+
+Also, you could disable jobs queueing by setting 'inline' attribute.
+For example, if you want to run all jobs in the same process for cucumber, try:
 
 ``` ruby
-task "resque:setup" => :environment do
-  Grit::Git.git_timeout = 10.minutes
-end
+Resque.inline = ENV['RAILS_ENV'] == "cucumber"
 ```
 
-We don't want the `git_timeout` as high as 10 minutes in our web app,

-### Process IDs (PIDs)
+#### Namespaces
 
-There are scenarios where it's helpful to record the PID of a resque
-worker process.  Use the PIDFILE option for easy access to the PID:
+If you're running multiple, separate instances of Resque you may want
+to namespace the keyspaces so they do not overlap. This is not unlike

+This feature is provided by the [redis-namespace](http://github.com/resque/redis-namespace) library, which
+Resque uses by default to separate the keys it manages from other keys
+in your Redis server.
 
-### Running in the background
+Simply use the `Resque.redis.namespace` accessor:
 
-(Only supported with ruby >= 1.9). There are scenarios where it's helpful for
-the resque worker to run itself in the background (usually in combination with
-PIDFILE).  Use the BACKGROUND option so that rake will return as soon as the

-### Polling frequency
+#### Storing Statistics
+ Resque allows to store count of processed and failed jobs.
 
-You can pass an INTERVAL option which is a float representing the polling frequency.
-The default is 5 seconds, but for a semi-active app you may want to use a smaller value.
+ By default it will store it in Redis using the keys `stats:processed` and `stats:failed`.

+#### Resque vs DelayedJob
 
-Queues will be processed in alphabetical order.
+How does Resque compare to DelayedJob, and why would you choose one
+over the other?
 
+* Resque supports multiple queues
+* DelayedJob supports finer grained priorities
+* Resque workers are resilient to memory leaks / bloat
+* DelayedJob workers are extremely simple and easy to modify
+* Resque requires Redis
+* DelayedJob requires ActiveRecord
+* Resque can only place JSONable Ruby objects on a queue as arguments
+* DelayedJob can place _any_ Ruby object on its queue as arguments
+* Resque includes a Sinatra app for monitoring what's going on
+* DelayedJob can be queried from within your Rails app if you want to
+  add an interface
 
-### Running Multiple Workers
+If you're doing Rails development, you already have a database and
+ActiveRecord. DelayedJob is super easy to setup and works great.
+GitHub used it for many months to process almost 200 million jobs.
 
-At GitHub we use god to start and stop multiple workers. A sample god
-configuration file is included under `examples/god`. We recommend this
-method.
+Choose Resque if:
 
-If you'd like to run multiple workers in development mode, you can do
-so using the `resque:workers` rake task:
+* You need multiple queues
+* You don't care / dislike numeric priorities

-### Mysql::Error: MySQL server has gone away
+#### Heroku
+
+When shutting down processes, Heroku sends every process a TERM signal at the
+same time. By default this causes an immediate shutdown of any running job
+leading to frequent `Resque::TermException` errors.  For short running jobs, a simple
+solution is to give a small amount of time for the job to finish
+before killing it.
+
+Resque doesn't handle this out of the box (for both cedar-14 and heroku-16), you need to
+install the [`resque-heroku-signals`](https://github.com/iloveitaly/resque-heroku-signals)
+addon which adds the required signal handling to make the behavior described above work.
+Related issue: https://github.com/resque/resque/issues/1559
+
+To accomplish this set the following environment variables:
+
+* `RESQUE_PRE_SHUTDOWN_TIMEOUT` - The time between the parent receiving a shutdown signal (TERM by default) and it sending that signal on to the child process. Designed to give the child process
+time to complete before being forced to die.
+
+* `TERM_CHILD` - Must be set for `RESQUE_PRE_SHUTDOWN_TIMEOUT` to be used. After the timeout, if the child is still running it will raise a `Resque::TermException` and exit.
+
+* `RESQUE_TERM_TIMEOUT` - By default you have a few seconds to handle `Resque::TermException` in your job. `RESQUE_TERM_TIMEOUT` and `RESQUE_PRE_SHUTDOWN_TIMEOUT` must be lower than the [heroku dyno timeout](https://devcenter.heroku.com/articles/limits#exit-timeout).

-The Front End
--------------
-
-Resque comes with a Sinatra-based front end for seeing what's up with
-your queue.
-
-![The Front End](https://camo.githubusercontent.com/64d150a243987ffbc33f588bd6d7722a0bb8d69a/687474703a2f2f7475746f7269616c732e6a756d7073746172746c61622e636f6d2f696d616765732f7265737175655f6f766572766965772e706e67)
-
-### Standalone
-
-If you've installed Resque as a gem running the front end standalone is easy:
-
-    $ resque-web
-
-It's a thin layer around `rackup` so it's configurable as well:
-
-    $ resque-web -p 8282
-
-If you have a Resque config file you want evaluated just pass it to
-the script as the final argument:
-
-    $ resque-web -p 8282 rails_root/config/initializers/resque.rb
-
-You can also set the namespace directly using `resque-web`:
-
-    $ resque-web -p 8282 -N myapp
-
-or set the Redis connection string if you need to do something like select a different database:
-
-    $ resque-web -p 8282 -r localhost:6379:2
-
-### Passenger
-
-Using Passenger? Resque ships with a `config.ru` you can use. See
-Phusion's guide:
-
-Apache: <https://www.phusionpassenger.com/library/deploy/apache/deploy/ruby/>
-Nginx: <https://www.phusionpassenger.com/library/deploy/nginx/deploy/ruby/>
-
-### Rack::URLMap
-
-If you want to load Resque on a subpath, possibly alongside other
-apps, it's easy to do with Rack's `URLMap`:
-
-``` ruby
-require 'resque/server'
-
-run Rack::URLMap.new \
-  "/"       => Your::App.new,
-  "/resque" => Resque::Server.new
-```
-
-Check `examples/demo/config.ru` for a functional example (including
-HTTP basic auth).
-
-### Rails 3
-
-You can also mount Resque on a subpath in your existing Rails 3 app by adding `require 'resque/server'` to the top of your routes file or in an initializer then adding this to `routes.rb`:
-
-``` ruby
-mount Resque::Server.new, :at => "/resque"
-```
-
-
-Resque vs DelayedJob
---------------------
-
-How does Resque compare to DelayedJob, and why would you choose one
-over the other?
-
-* Resque supports multiple queues
-* DelayedJob supports finer grained priorities
-* Resque workers are resilient to memory leaks / bloat
-* DelayedJob workers are extremely simple and easy to modify
-* Resque requires Redis
-* DelayedJob requires ActiveRecord
-* Resque can only place JSONable Ruby objects on a queue as arguments
-* DelayedJob can place _any_ Ruby object on its queue as arguments
-* Resque includes a Sinatra app for monitoring what's going on
-* DelayedJob can be queried from within your Rails app if you want to
-  add an interface
-
-If you're doing Rails development, you already have a database and
-ActiveRecord. DelayedJob is super easy to setup and works great.
-GitHub used it for many months to process almost 200 million jobs.
-
-Choose Resque if:
-
-* You need multiple queues
-* You don't care / dislike numeric priorities
-* You don't need to persist every Ruby object ever
-* You have potentially huge queues
-* You want to see what's going on
-* You expect a lot of failure / chaos
-* You can setup Redis
-* You're not running short on RAM
-
-Choose DelayedJob if:
-
-* You like numeric priorities
-* You're not doing a gigantic amount of jobs each day
-* Your queue stays small and nimble
-* There is not a lot failure / chaos
-* You want to easily throw anything on the queue
-* You don't want to setup Redis
-
-In no way is Resque a "better" DelayedJob, so make sure you pick the
-tool that's best for your app.

-Resque Dependencies
--------------------
-
-    $ gem install bundler
-    $ bundle install
-
-
-Installing Resque
------------------
-
-### In a Rack app, as a gem
-
-First install the gem.
-
-    $ gem install resque
-
-Next include it in your application.
-
-``` ruby
-require 'resque'
-```
-
-Now start your application:
-
-    rackup config.ru
-
-That's it! You can now create Resque jobs from within your app.
-
-To start a worker, create a Rakefile in your app's root (or add this
-to an existing Rakefile):
-
-``` ruby
-require 'your/app'
-require 'resque/tasks'
-```
-
-If you're using Rails 5.x, include the following in lib/tasks/resque.rb:
-
-```ruby
-require 'resque/tasks'
-task 'resque:setup' => :environment
-```
-
-Now:
-
-    $ QUEUE=* rake resque:work
-
-Alternately you can define a `resque:setup` hook in your Rakefile if you
-don't want to load your app every time rake runs.
-
-
-### In a Rails 2.x app, as a gem
-
-First install the gem.
-
-    $ gem install resque
-
-Next include it in your application.
-
-    $ cat config/initializers/load_resque.rb
-    require 'resque'
-
-Now start your application:
-
-    $ ./script/server
-
-That's it! You can now create Resque jobs from within your app.
-
-To start a worker, add this to your Rakefile in `RAILS_ROOT`:
-
-``` ruby
-require 'resque/tasks'
-```
-
-Now:
-
-    $ QUEUE=* rake environment resque:work
-
-Don't forget you can define a `resque:setup` hook in
-`lib/tasks/whatever.rake` that loads the `environment` task every time.
-
-
-### In a Rails 2.x app, as a plugin
-
-    $ ./script/plugin install git://github.com/resque/resque
-
-That's it! Resque will automatically be available when your Rails app
-loads.
-
-To start a worker:
-
-    $ QUEUE=* rake environment resque:work
-
-Don't forget you can define a `resque:setup` hook in
-`lib/tasks/whatever.rake` that loads the `environment` task every time.
-
-
-### In a Rails 3.x or 4.x app, as a gem
-
-First include it in your Gemfile.
-
-    $ cat Gemfile
-    ...
-    gem 'resque'
-    ...
-
-Next install it with Bundler.
-
-    $ bundle install
-
-Now start your application:
-
-    $ rails server
-
-That's it! You can now create Resque jobs from within your app.
-
-To start a worker, add this to a file in `lib/tasks` (ex:
-`lib/tasks/resque.rake`):
-
-``` ruby
-require 'resque/tasks'
-```
-
-Now:
-
-    $ QUEUE=* rake environment resque:work
-
-Don't forget you can define a `resque:setup` hook in
-`lib/tasks/whatever.rake` that loads the `environment` task every time.
-
-
-Configuration
--------------
-
-You may want to change the Redis host and port Resque connects to, or
-set various other options at startup.
-
-Resque has a `redis` setter which can be given a string or a Redis
-object. This means if you're already using Redis in your app, Resque
-can re-use the existing connection.
-
-String: `Resque.redis = 'localhost:6379'`
-
-Redis: `Resque.redis = $redis`
-
-For our rails app we have a `config/initializers/resque.rb` file where
-we load `config/resque.yml` by hand and set the Redis information
-appropriately.
-
-Here's our `config/resque.yml`:
-
-    development: localhost:6379
-    test: localhost:6379
-    staging: redis1.se.github.com:6379
-    fi: localhost:6379
-    production: redis1.ae.github.com:6379
-
-And our initializer:
-
-``` ruby
-rails_root = ENV['RAILS_ROOT'] || File.dirname(__FILE__) + '/../..'
-rails_env = ENV['RAILS_ENV'] || 'development'
-
-resque_config = YAML.load_file(rails_root + '/config/resque.yml')
-Resque.redis = resque_config[rails_env]
-```
-
-Easy peasy! Why not just use `RAILS_ROOT` and `RAILS_ENV`? Because
-this way we can tell our Sinatra app about the config file:
-
-    $ RAILS_ENV=production resque-web rails_root/config/initializers/resque.rb
-
-Now everyone is on the same page.
-
-Also, you could disable jobs queueing by setting 'inline' attribute.
-For example, if you want to run all jobs in the same process for cucumber, try:
-
-``` ruby
-Resque.inline = ENV['RAILS_ENV'] == "cucumber"
-```
-
-
-Plugins and Hooks
------------------
-
-For a list of available plugins see
-<http://wiki.github.com/resque/resque/plugins>.
-
-If you'd like to write your own plugin, or want to customize Resque
-using hooks (such as `Resque.after_fork`), see
-[docs/HOOKS.md](http://github.com/resque/resque/blob/master/docs/HOOKS.md).
-
-
-Namespaces
-----------
-
-If you're running multiple, separate instances of Resque you may want
-to namespace the keyspaces so they do not overlap. This is not unlike
-the approach taken by many memcached clients.
-
-This feature is provided by the [redis-namespace][rs] library, which
-Resque uses by default to separate the keys it manages from other keys
-in your Redis server.
-
-Simply use the `Resque.redis.namespace` accessor:
-
-``` ruby
-Resque.redis.namespace = "resque:GitHub"
-```
-
-We recommend sticking this in your initializer somewhere after Redis
-is configured.
-
-
-Demo

-Resque ships with a demo Sinatra app for creating jobs that are later
-processed in the background.
