Rakeistrano

A Capistrano 3.x plugin for defining cap tasks that map to your application's Rake tasks.

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'capistrano', '~> 3.0.0'
gem 'rakeistrano'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install rakeistrano

require 'rakeistrano'

Then add a file named config/rakeistrano.yml in your project using the following format:

rake_tasks:
  - task: db:seed
    role: :worker # Role to run the task on (optional, defaults to :all)
    primary: true # Whether the task should only be run on the primary of the role specified. (optional, defaults to false)

Only task is required. For example, if your YAML configuration looked like this:

rake_tasks:
  - task: cache:sweep
  - task: refresh:sitemap
    role: :app
  - task: db:update
    role: :worker
    primary: true

The following tasks would be available to you in Capistrano:

$ cap -T
cap cache:sweep                  # rake task: rake cache:sweep, role: all, primary: false
cap refresh:sitemap              # rake task: rake refresh:sitemap, role: app, primary: false
cap db:update                    # rake task: rake db:update, role: worker, primary: true

You can add as many tasks to this YAML file as you like.

Once you've set everything up, simply call your tasks directly (cap cache:sweep), or add them to your deploy flow:

namespace :deploy do
  after :publishing, 'cache:sweep'
end
