ArgumentError: wrong number of arguments (given 1, expected 0; required keyword: schedule) - cron

[hiendinhngoc]

I got this error when setting for my job with argument:

class External::BlazerJob < ApplicationJob
  queue_as :default

  def perform(schedule:)
    Blazer.run_checks(schedule: schedule)
  end
end

and here is my setting:

five_mins_interval_check_task: {
        cron: "10/5 * * * *",
        class: "External::BlazerJob",
        args: {schedule: "5 minutes"},
        desciption: "Run 5-minute interval checks",
      }

I expected the job should be Blazer.run_checks(schedule: "5 minutes") after passing the argument.

What was I wrong here?

@hiendinhngoc Try passing the args as an array:

args: [{schedule: "5 minutes"}],

🙌 woot!

I am sorry, reopen this because after deploying to staging, I'm still getting this error regarding the update, active job params:

{
  "job_id": "c8fc128a-05de-495d-9d68-cu92483c56d8",
  "locale": "en",
  "priority": null,
  "timezone": "UTC",
  "arguments": [
    {
      "schedule": "5 minutes",
      "_aj_hash_with_indifferent_access": true
    }
  ],
  "job_class": "External::BlazerJob",
  "executions": 0,
  "queue_name": "default",
  "enqueued_at": "2022-03-29T04:25:00Z",
  "provider_job_id": null,
  "exception_executions": {
  }
}

Does it due to the old jobs which were already in the queue before? If yes how do I remove all the old ones?
PS: Get error also with params with more than one args like this: args: [{from: 7.days}, {to: 6.days}]

@hiendinhngoc I looked into it deeper and I think it may not work with kwargs. I'm a bit stumped on how to appropriately construct/pass a configuration value that has both args and kwargs to a method. Could you share the version of Ruby, and Ruby on Rails you're using?

I'm doing some more research on how to handle this.

[hiendinhngoc]

@bensheldon I am using ruby 3.0.2 and rails 6.0.4

@hiendinhngoc I just released a new version (v2.11.3) that splits out an explicit kwargs.

five_mins_interval_check_task: {
        cron: "10/5 * * * *",
        class: "External::BlazerJob",
        kwargs: {schedule: "5 minutes"}, # <-- change this to `kwargs`
        desciption: "Run 5-minute interval checks",
      }

[hiendinhngoc]

@bensheldon thank you for your quick support. If the arguments are more than one, what should be correct?
[{from: 7.days}, {to: 6.days}] or {from: 7.days, to: 6.days}

[bensheldon]

Yay! One single hash.

thank you so much!
