QUESTION
About 6 years ago there was a rails gem caled HireFire that worked with background jobs to start and stop workers as needed, so the worker wasn't always running and always accumulating charges.
HireFire seems to be defunct (as a gem), and I'm wondering how I can autoscale heroku workers like this these days?
I'm not interested in paying for a service for this.
I've looked around and am surprised that the solution doesn't seem obvious.
Has heroku implemented this type of auto-scaling, or is there another rails gem that will do it for me? Thanks

Answered 2017-Jul-09 at 19:50You can scale Heroku dynos using the CLI, so building your own service to do this can be pretty simple.
Create another app that uses the scheduler to run every hour, using a unix shell script to download and install the CLI, and use credentials stored as ENV variables to send scale
commands to other apps.
Here's a codebase as an example of the technique: https://github.com/kbaum/heroku-database-backups

Install hirefire
You can use hirefire like any standard Python library. You will need to make sure that you have a development environment consisting of a Python distribution including header files, a compiler, pip, and git installed. Make sure that your pip, setuptools, and wheel are up to date. When using pip it is generally recommended to install packages in a virtual environment to avoid changes to the system.
