Patch HireFire so worker auto-scaling works on the Beta Heroku Cedar stack

heroku_cedar_hirefire_patch.rb

# hopefully a temporary patch so HireFire will run on the Heroku Cedar stack
# NB: the worker type is hard-coded as "worker" below, this must correlate to the type in Procfile
# NB: ENV['APP_NAME'] must be defined (e.g. 'heroku config:add APP_NAME=myherokuappname')

# using ps & ps_scale instead of info & set_workers
class HireFire::Environment::Heroku
  
  private

  def workers(amount = nil)
    
    if amount.nil?
      # return client.info(ENV['APP_NAME'])[:workers].to_i
      return client.ps(ENV['APP_NAME']).select {|p| p['process'] =~ /worker.[0-9]+/}.length
    end

    # client.set_workers(ENV['APP_NAME'], amount)
    return client.ps_scale(ENV['APP_NAME'], {"type" => "worker", "qty" => amount})

  rescue RestClient::Exception
    HireFire::Logger.message("Worker query request failed with #{ $!.class.name } #{ $!.message }")
    nil
  end
end

# quick override to ensure that HireFire is activated on Heroku. The change is that it is looking for
# ::Rails.env.production? instead of ENV.include?('HEROKU_UPID')
module HireFire
  module Environment

    module ClassMethods
      
      def environment
        @environment ||= HireFire::Environment.const_get(
          if environment = HireFire.configuration.environment
            environment.to_s.camelize
          else
            ::Rails.env.production? ? 'Heroku' : 'Noop'
          end
        ).new
      end
      
    end
  end
end

Is this still up to date? I can't seem to get it working...
