Sidekiq::Retries

This subclasses the stock Sidekiq retries middleware to give you some additional options to conditionally retry jobs irrespective of whether retries are enabled for the job.

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'sidekiq-retries'

Usage

class MyWorker
  include Sidekiq::Worker
  sidekiq_options retry: false # or retry: 25, or the default...

  def perform
    #force a retry even if retry: false using default retry options
    raise Sidekiq::Retries::Retry.new(RuntimeError.new('whatever happened'))

    #force a retry even if retry: false using a specific max_retries
    raise Sidekiq::Retries::Retry.new(RuntimeError.new('whatever happened'), 10)

    #if e.g. retries: true or retries: 10, skip it anyway
    raise Sidekiq::Retries::Fail.new(RuntimeError.new('whatever happened'))
  end
end
