Shoryuken sho-ryu-ken is a super-efficient AWS SQS thread-based message processor. No manual installation is required if Shoryuken is part of a Rails app. If you’re using a standalone Shoryuken app, please see our integration guide. Instrumentation for Shoryuken is enabled automatically if the Shoryuken gem is detected on AppSignal start.

​
Batch support

If an app uses worker with the :batch => true option, multiple messages are processed by a worker in the same tick. An upgrade is required to Ruby gem 2.11.3 or higher, which adds support for the batch option. 
# my_worker.rb
class MyWorker
  include Shoryuken::Worker

  shoryuken_options :queue => "batched", :batch => true

  def perform(sqs_msg, body)
    # Do stuff
    puts "Performing BatchedWorker job: #{body}"
    sleep 1
  end
end

​
Example application

We have an example application for a standalone Shoryuken application available in our examples repository on GitHub.
