heroku_s3_backup

Backup your PostgreSQL database from Heroku to Amazon S3. Gem to wrap the code by Trevor Turk.

HireFire automatically "hires" and "fires" (aka "scales") Delayed Job and Resque workers on Heroku. When there are no queue jobs, HireFire will fire (shut down) all workers. If there are queued jobs, then it'll hire (spin up) workers. The amount of workers that get hired depends on the amount of queued jobs (the ratio can be configured by you). HireFire is great for both high, mid and low traffic applications. It can save you a lot of money by only hiring workers when there are pending jobs, and then firing them again once all the jobs have been processed. It's also capable to dramatically reducing processing time by automatically hiring more workers when the queue size increases.

hominid

httparty

Makes http fun! Also, makes consuming restful web services dead easy. - This fork adds basic authentication to http_proxy.

httparty-mine

httparty clone from freerange (https://github.com/freerange/httparty), which adds password option to client certificate - in this repo just proxy authentication is added, but I also needed password for the client certificate (freerange fork is still not included in the official jnunemaker repo and forking a fork is not allowed in github) - I'll create a pull request for the proxy authentication feature to the jnunemaker repo
