Rails problem with Delayed_Job and Active Record
- by Michael Waxman
I'm using Delayed_Job to grab a Twitter user's data from the API, but it's not saving it in the model for some reason! Please help! (code below)
class BandJob < Struct.new(:band_id, :band_username) #parameter
def perform
require 'json'
require 'open-uri'
band = Band.find_by_id(band_id)
t = JSON.parse(open("http://twitter.com/users/show/#{band_username}.json").read)
band.screen_name = t['screen_name']
band.profile_background_image = t['profile_background_image_url']
band.url = 'http://' + band_username + '.com'
band.save!
end
end
To clarify, I'm actually not getting any errors, it's just not saving. Here's what my log looks like:
* [JOB] acquiring lock on BandJob
