Ruby Rake load tasks from a gem
include, load, rake, ruby
Solution
Okay, I found a solution for this problem if anyone is interested:
# Rails.root/Rakefile
spec = Gem::Specification.find_by_name 'test'
load "#{spec.gem_dir}/tasks/deploy.rake"
That's all I needed to say in my Rakefile!
Problem
i have been trying to include a gem located on github to my current app. The gem has a rake file that i want to able to access from my app. But i keep getting load errors. ``` load 'tasks/deploy.rake' ``` The gem file looks something like that ``` # -*- encoding: utf-8 -*- require 'rake' Gem::Specification.new do |gem| gem.authors = %w(Hello World) gem.email = %w(test@example.com) gem.description = 'test' gem.summary = 'test' gem.homepage = 'https://github.com/..' gem.files = FileList[ 'lib/**/*.rb', 'tasks/deploy.rake', 'README.md' ].to_a gem.name = 'test' gem.require_paths = %w(lib) gem.version = '0.0.1' end ``` I want to be able to load ./tasks/deploy.rake to my app that includes this gem, how do i go on about it? thanks
