Debug delayed job in Rails

The post explains a simple way to debug delayed_job in a Rails project. It uses the Rails console to create a worker with quiet set to false, then starts that worker so job code can be debugged directly.

Reading notes

#

• Open a Rails console in the project.
• Create a delayed_job worker with quiet: false so it prints to the console.
• Start the worker from the console.
• Use a debugger statement inside the jobs and debug them without loggers.
