🛠️ Install and Configure Sidekiq​

Sidekiq runs background jobs in Rails using Redis. To get started, add the Sidekiq gem to your Gemfile and create an initializer to configure the Redis connection.

# Gemfile
gem 'sidekiq'

# Then install:
bundle install
# config/initializers/sidekiq.rb
Sidekiq.configure_server do |config|
  config.redis = { url: ENV.fetch('REDIS_URL', 'redis://localhost:6379/0') }
end

Sidekiq.configure_client do |config|
  config.redis = { url: ENV.fetch('REDIS_URL', 'redis://localhost:6379/0') }
end
