Installation

$ gem install sidekiq-seize

Worker example

  class MyWorker
    include Sidekiq::Worker
    sidekiq_options seize: true

    def perform(params)
      ...
    end
  end

Seize only when certain types of exceptions occur

  class MyWorker
    include Sidekiq::Worker
    sidekiq_options seize: true, seize_exceptions_classes: [ActiveRecord::Deadlocked]

    def perform(params)
      ...
    end
  end

Implementation Details

This middleware inherits from sidekiq JobRetry middleware, all exceptions in each retry until the final retry are captured and job is manually put into retry. For the last retry exception is raised naturally.

Caution: Do not use with sidekiq batch.

It will result in trigger of on_success callback even when job went into retry.
