I am currently developing a rails 4 application. I use devise for authentication. I want to use Sidekiq to send emails. I found this tuto https://github.com/mperham/sidekiq/wiki/Devise but I cannot figure out where I should put the name of the queue. Can anyone help me with a gist. Thank you

That page already shows how to configure the queue name, look closer github.com/mperham/sidekiq/wiki/Devise#use-devise-async – Mike Perham
Thank you Mike, I don't want add devise-async. I followed the "Do it your self" section and I get it running. As I configured many queues I do not know which one is used. – nizniz

Once you have Sidekiq added to your rails app (see link to getting started) In order to use devise with Sidekiq (without devise-async) you can use rails built in ActiveJob. Put this override function in the model that devise is implemented in:

 def send_devise_notification(notification, *args)
  devise_mailer.send(notification, self, *args).deliver_later
 end

configure Sideiq with ActiveJob

# config/application.rb

class Application < Rails::Application
  # ...
  config.active_job.queue_adapter = :sidekiq
end

And set up your mailers queue for Sidekiq

# config/sidekiq.yml

---
:concurrency: 1
:queues:
  - default
  - mailers

Also redis should be installed to hold job data for sidekiq, its all given in more detail here

Based on the code snippet shown on that wiki page, you can do this:

Devise::Mailer.delay(queue: 'my_queue').send(...)
