Midburn Tickets Queue

What is this?

This is Midburn's tickets processing queue. Each batch of order requests submitters (say 100 orders) will be enqueue into an ordered queue (say: tier_001) which will be processed later by a worder.

Navigate to /resque to follow processing order (or clearing past tasks).

Submit a new order by POST /enqueue with a JSON file and Content-Type: application/json. The following curl command will work:

curl -X POST http://midburn-tickets-queue.herokuapp.com/enqueue -d '{"firstname": "elad", "lastname": "gariany", "email":"[email protected]"}' --header "Content-Type: application/json"

  # - generate the email to be send to a client
  # - send the email for purchase
