Requirements
------------

[](#requirements)

- PHP 5.3+
- Redis 2.2+
- Composer

Getting Started
---------------

[](#getting-started)

resque-pause is installed via composer. To install:

```
$ # Add php-resque-pause to your project's composer.json
$ composer require "bigcommerce/php-resque-pause"
$ # Install composer dependencies
$ composer install
```

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

To use Resque Pause in your application you'll need to create a globally used instance, we use Pimple but you can use globals, a static variable, or whatever else you like. Upon instantiation `Pause` will add a Resque listener to make sure that any jobs pushed to a paused queue will be paused as well. On destruction `Pause` will remove said listener.

```
// Let's put it in a global since that's easy/familiar
$GLOBALS['ResquePause'] = new \Resque\Plugins\Pause(); // Your enqueues are now being listened to
```

### Pause it!

[](#pause-it)

```
$GLOBALS['ResquePause']->pause('My_Queue');
```

### Resume it!

[](#resume-it)

```
$GLOBALS['ResquePause']->resume('My_Queue');
```

### Is it Paused?

[](#is-it-paused)

```
$GLOBALS['ResquePause']->isPaused('My_Queue');
```
