Sidekiq perform_at specified datetime

Question

I'm using the SideKiq Ruby gem and I want to use

perform_at

From the wiki I read that I can use

perform_at(3.hours.from_now, 'mike', 1)

...Is there a way to use

perform at

on a specific datetime? For example, if I save a variable

datetime = 2014/Apr/16 22:30

could I just write something like

perform_at(datetime, do_something)

Answer 1

The answer is MessageWorker.perform_at(@message.date_time, @message.id)

Answer 2

For those who can't use perform at you could solve this using set(wait_until: time) like:

Message.set(wait_until: someTime).perform_later(args)

This will queue your message inside Sidekiq for your desired date-time.
