Process AJAX response with long runing tasks
- by mpz
I have long time task in controller action.
I use delayed job for it. (Also in heroku it is good practice for perfomance - dyno must work for small time in each request)
But my client need result of it work and users can wait on that task.
It is more clear: no any addition models or records in it, simple view and js...
I think about such way:
On client run AJAX with very long timeout (5 min for example)
Client make request to server as usual
On controller in action1 def start_work (with delay work setup) i need NO any response to client
After work performs (delay job finished) i need run new action2 with response to client
Client recieve response after about 1-5 min
It is possible?
