module ActiveJob::Exceptions

Provides behavior for retrying and discarding jobs on exceptions.

Public instance methods

retry_job(options = {})

Reschedules the job to be re-executed. This is useful in combination with rescue_from. When you rescue an exception from your job you can ask Active Job to retry performing your job.

Options

  • :wait - Enqueues the job with the specified delay in seconds

  • :wait_until - Enqueues the job at the time specified

  • :queue - Enqueues the job on the specified queue

  • :priority - Enqueues the job with the specified priority

Examples

class SiteScraperJob < ActiveJob::Base
  rescue_from(ErrorLoadingSite) do
    retry_job queue: :low_priority
  end

  def perform(*args)
    # raise ErrorLoadingSite if cannot scrape
  end
end
