Rooster: A smarter daemon solution for Rails apps

Posted by chris in Programming, Rails.

Here’s the presentation:

    Just discovered this, it’s great. Been looking for something like this for a long time. You planning to continue development? Need help?

    @Peter Thanks for the comment. It’s been stable in production for a while now, and I haven’t had any needs to make any modifications recently. Feel free to fork my repo on github if you want, and send me a pull request. Let me know if you have any questions.
