I am using the daemons plugin.
I have just one problem how do i add modules from the /lib folder to
the /lib/daemons/daemon.rb file
eg. /lib/basic_functions.rb
this is the file i want to load in daemon.rb
contents daemon.rb:
#!/usr/bin/env ruby
You might want to change this
ENV[“RAILS_ENV”] ||= “production”
require File.dirname(FILE) + “/…/…/config/environment”
#require File.dirname(FILE) + “/…/…/lib/basic_functions.rb”(this
didn’t work)
#require ‘…/basic_functions.rb’ (this didn’t work)
$running = true
Signal.trap(“TERM”) do
$running = false
end
while($running) do
Replace this with your code
get_current_time
ActiveRecord::Base.logger.info “This daemons is still running at #
{@current_time}.\n”
sleep 5
end
contents of basic_functions
module BasicFunctions
def get_current_time
#@current_time = Time.now.beginning_of_month + 27.days
#@current_time = Time.now.beginning_of_month + 13.days
@current_time = Time.now
end
def get_time_period
get_current_time
@absmid = @current_time.beginning_of_month + 14.days
@midperiod = @absmid - 2.days
if @current_time >= @absmid
@begin_bid_time = @absmid
@end_bid_time = @current_time.next_month.beginning_of_month -
2.days
@ad_window_begin = @current_time.next_month.beginning_of_month
@ad_window_end = @current_time.next_month.beginning_of_month +
15.days
else
@begin_bid_time = @current_time.beginning_of_month
@end_bid_time = @midperiod
@ad_window_begin = @absmid
@ad_window_end = @current_time.next_month.beginning_of_month
end
end
end

requiring that file just means that the module BasicFunctions is now
loaded. you haven’t done anything with it yet (include BasicFunctions
somewhere might be a good starting point)

Thanks Fred.
I tried what u said but I wasn’t able to get it going. This time I didn’t
require the file I dumped the module inside the daemons.rb file but I just
couldn’t get it to work. I know it must be something to do with the syntax I
used.
where the module is on disk is somewhat irrelevant.
include Basic_functions
That must match the name of the module
