how to invoke a rake file

Thufir Hawat

How is this rakefile invoked?

C:\code>
C:\code>rake
(in C:/code)
rake aborted!
Don't know how to build task 'default'

(See full trace by running task with --trace)

C:\code>
C:\code>type rakefile.rb
alias :original_directory :directory
def directory(dir)
original_directory dir
Rake::Task[dir]
end


namespace :utils do
task :create_directories => [
directory('public/icons'),
directory('public/images'),
directory('public/groups'),
]
end
C:\code>

If I wanted to use Rake to call each of these tasks, I might create a
file called "Rakefile"

try:
rake utils:create_directories

Thanks, this worked on Windows :)


Why isn't it:

rake utils:create_directory


I thought it was just rails that did magic with plurals.




thanks,

"rakefile.rb" == "Rakefile"
# false

And yeah, you gotta invoke a task like Mark says.

On my system at least rakefile.rb == Rakefile for these purposes.
Isn't that the case, or what did you mean? However, I wonder what
happens when there's rakefile.rb, Rakefile.rb and Rakefile as well as
rakefile and "rake" is run...


thufir@arrakis:~$
thufir@arrakis:~$ rake
rake aborted!
No Rakefile found (looking for: rakefile, Rakefile, rakefile.rb,
Rakefile.rb)
/usr/lib/ruby/1.8/rake.rb:1840:in `load_rakefile'
(See full trace by running task with --trace)
thufir@arrakis:~$
