I want to invoke my rake task from console. Is it doable? if yes, how to do so?
I tried this on console:
require 'rake'
Rake::Task['my_task'].invoke
but it give me this error:
RuntimeError: Don't know how to build task
it's like the rake cannot found the task.
any help would be appreciated.
Thank you
Edit: I am using rails 2.3.5
Running your Rake tasks requires two steps:
You are missing the second step.
Normally this is done in the Rakefile, but you have to do it manually here:
require 'rake'
Rails.application.load_tasks # <-- MISSING LINE
Rake::Task['my_task'].invoke
