Logging in delayed_job?

clockwork, delayed-job, logging, ruby, ruby-on-rails

Solution

When I needed log output from Delayed Jobs, I found this question to be fairly helpful.

In `config/initializers/delayed_job.rb` I add the line:

Delayed::Worker.logger = Logger.new(File.join(Rails.root, 'log', 'dj.log'))

Then, in my job, I output to this log with:

Delayed::Worker.logger.info("Log Entry")

This results in the file `log/dj.log` being written to. This works in development, staging, and production environments.

Problem

I can't get any log output from `delayed_job`, and I'm not sure my jobs are starting. Here's my Procfile: ``` web: bundle exec rails server worker: bundle exec rake jobs:work worker: bundle exec clockwork app/clock.rb ``` And here's the job: ``` class ScanningJob def perform logger.info "logging from delayed_job" end def after(job) Rails.logger.info "logging from after delayed_job" end end ``` I see that clockwork outputs to system out, and I can see worker executor starting, but I never see my log statements hit. I tried `puts` as well to no avail. My clock file is pretty simple: ``` every(3.seconds, 'refreshlistings') { Delayed::Job.enqueue ScanningJob.new } ``` I just want to see this working, and lack of logging means I can't. What's going on here?
