Parse Stack - Async

This Parse Stack plugin adds support for background saves and deletes, similar to the use of saveInBackground and saveEventually in other Parse Server SDKs. It utilizes SuckerPunch to perform the asynchronous processing of the API operation in a separate queue.

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'parse-stack-async'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install parse-stack-async

Usage

This plugin for Parse Stack allows you to save and delete objects in an asynchronous manner, without blocking the main thread of an application. This is useful when saving objects in a web application like Rails.

This plugin adds two methods to all Parse::Object subclasses: save_eventually and destroy_eventually, which mimic the same API in the mobile SDKs for Parse. These take an optional block that will provide you information whether it was successful in performing the corresponding operation.

require 'parse/stack'
require 'parse/stack/async'

object = Parse::User.first # get a user
object.username = 'newUserName'

# saves object in a background thread.
object.save_eventually do |success|
  puts "Successfully saved in Parse!" if success
end

# Or delete asynchronously
anotherObject.destroy_eventually do |success|
  puts "Deleted object from Parse!" if success
end
