This code snippet assumes you are using Bundler and Rails.

modify your Gemfile

 gem 'iron_mq'
 gem 'ey_config'

modify application.rb (or other app-wide initializer)

 IronWorker.configure do |config|

   config.project_id = EY::Config.get(:ironworker, 'IRON_WORKER_PROJECT_ID' )
 end

Now you’re ready to create workers. That’s code in your app that performs a background task by running in Iron’s cloud.

See the official gem documentation or this repository of examples to learn more about workers.
