Ruby on Rails

I have one function, that have been working in delayed job.

class TestDelay < ActiveRecord::Base    def start_worker       tc = TestController.new         #Here calling that main function    end  end

also i have one other class

class TestController < ApplicationController    before_filter :filter1, :filter2      def follow_function      #Doing the main portion    end      protected    def filter1    end      def filter2    end  end

In the class TestController has two filters, that will work on every action, there setting the instance variables on that filters, and using that in my follow_function. So the issues are when i am trying to call the follow_function from the delayed job method start_worker, i need to set the instance variables in that filters, this is the exact way to do this?

so what i tried something like that i put one function in TestController class like

def init_variables(names)    #filter1(names)    #filter2(names)  end    class TestDelay < ActiveRecord::Base    def start_worker       class_name.init_variables(params)    end  end

and i tried to passing arguments in before_filter, but its totally failed and getting weird. Is this the correct way to do this?
