preStop Kubernetes Lifecycle Resque Hook

kube-resque-pre-stop.sh

#!/bin/bash

# This script gracefully stops resque workers by issuing the USR2 
# signal to the resque-pool manager and then waits for the workers 
# to be paused before exiting. Resque-pool master process relays 
# the USR2 signal to the children.
#

#
# This script can serve as a preStop lifecycle hook in Kubernetes

@sunild , for resque-pool master with workers in a k8s pod, you can specify pod.Spec.TerminationGracePeriodSeconds and tune this value in the spec section of the Kubernetes pod's manifest if you need a grace period.

Here is the documentation: https://kubernetes.io/docs/tasks/administer-cluster/out-of-resource/#soft-eviction-thresholds
