title: Add jobs to a rails-sidekiq queue from node.js
body: <p>I have 2 apps. 1 is a rails app and the other one is a node.js one. I'm using sidekiq in the Rails app. My node.js app will receive a huge amount of http posts (at least 20 req/sec) and I need those requests to be processed by the rails app. </p>
  
  <p>The best way I found is to put those requests in a sidekiq queue and have Rails process them when it can. Is it possible to add a job to sidekiq from a different application? Is this done by talking directly to redis? The job will be very simple:</p>
  
  <pre><code>message_type
  source
  payload
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>These fields are present in the initial http post request.</p>
  
  <p>I thought of using rails directly as the first entry-point but rails is not that good when it comes to loads of concurrent http requests.</p>
  
  <p>Any ideas on how to add a job to a sidekiq queue from outside rails?</p>
