# Sidekiq::Compress

Although it is a bad practice, one might have to pass huge string params to it's sidekiq worker, bloating redis memory. For such cases, *sidekiq-compress* can be used to compress worker's string parameters before pushing them to redis. When retrieving workers params from redis back, it decompresses compressed data and passes it to worker.

This gem compresses sidekiq string params using facebook's [zstd](https://github.com/facebook/zstd) compression algorithm and thus reduces redis memory usage.

## Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

```ruby
gem 'sidekiq-compress'
```

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install sidekiq-compress

## Usage

To use, add sidekiq-compress to the middleware chains, it can be done following way:

```
Sidekiq.configure_server do |config|
Sidekiq::Compress.configure_server_middleware config
end

Sidekiq.configure_client do |config|
Sidekiq::Compress.configure_client_middleware config
end
```

And in your worker:

```ruby
class MyJob
include Sidekiq::Worker
include Sidekiq::Compress::Worker # compresses all string job params

def perform(*args)
# your code goes here
end
end
```

Optionally, you can state explicitly which string params to compress with compress_params keyword:

```ruby
class MyJob
include Sidekiq::Worker
include Sidekiq::Compress::Worker # compresses string job params

compress_params index: [0,2]

def perform(param1, param2, param3) # only param1 and param3 is compressed
# your code goes here
end
end
```

## Development

After checking out the repo, run `bin/setup` to install dependencies. Then, run `rake test` to run the tests. You can also run `bin/console` for an interactive prompt that will allow you to experiment.

To install this gem onto your local machine, run `bundle exec rake install`. To release a new version, update the version number in `version.rb`, and then run `bundle exec rake release`, which will create a git tag for the version, push git commits and tags, and push the `.gem` file to [rubygems.org](https://rubygems.org).
