# rails-sidekiq-code-snippets
A Rails app that manages a library of code snippets and uses Sidekiq workers to
apply syntax highlighting.
Based on the tutorial found at http://railscasts.com/episodes/366-sidekiq.
## How to use
#### Clone the repo
```
git clone [email protected]:thinkswan/rails-sidekiq-code-snippets.git
```
#### Install Redis
If you're using Homebrew:
```
brew install redis
redis-server /usr/local/etc/redis.conf
```
If you prefer to install from source:
* http://redis.io/download#installation
#### Install gems and set database up
```
gem install foreman
bundle install
bin/rake db:setup
```
#### Start server and Sidekiq workers
```
foreman start
```
This will start a server at http://localhost:3000.
To monitor the Sidekiq workers, open http://localhost:3000/sidekiq in a separate
tab.
## How it works
The Rails app is a basic CRUD application that allows you to manage code
snippets. It is backed by an SQLite3 database.
When you create or modify a snippet, a Sidekiq worker (`SnippetHighlighter`) is
enqueued. This worker sends the code snippet and specified language to a [public
syntax highlighting API](http://markup.su/highlighter/api) and saves the result
when finished.
Note that when you first create or modify a snippet, you will see the plain
code when the request completes. This is because the syntax highlighting job has
not been picked off the queue yet.
Once a worker finishes the job, you can refresh the page to see the
syntax highlighted version of the snippet.
