PHP-Resque failed jobs list

Question

I have successfully integrated PHP RESQUE in my Ubuntu 14.

How can I get list of failed jobs in PHP to process them? I tried searching on web but could not find specific answer for PHP.

Please help. Thanks in advance.

You have two options: one is using the Resque-web UI: https://github.com/resque/resque-web if you want to install it from scratch or, better yet, there is a Docker container that makes it easy to get it up and running: https://hub.docker.com/r/ennexa/resque-web/~/dockerfile/

Resque-web has a tab to see the failed jobs and the option to reprocess them.

Programmatically, I don't think there is a built-in method that would allow that so I guess you would have to be creative here. For example, from resque-php Github page: You have the ability to retrieve a token identifying a job when you create it:

$token = Resque::enqueue('default', 'My_Job', $args, true);

With that information, you can then retrieve the job status:

$status = new Resque_Job_Status($token);
echo $status->get(); // Outputs the status

You will want to check for this:

Resque_Job_Status::STATUS_FAILED
