Question

I have a rake task that uses a parameter on the command line like that:

rake sunspot:reindex[, MyModel]

(Yes, the direct comma behind the bracket is correct.)

How do I specify the same rake command from within Ruby?

Some attempts that don’t work:

Rake::Task['sunspot:reindex'].execute("[, ActsAsTaggableOn::Tagging]")
Rake::Task['sunspot:reindex'].execute([nil, ActsAsTaggableOn::Tagging])
Rake::Task['sunspot:reindex[, ActsAsTaggableOn::Tagging]'].execute

Some other suggestions what I could try else?

Answer 1

You probably need to use invoke instead of execute:

Rake::Task['sunspot:reindex'].invoke(nil, ActsAsTaggableOn::Tagging)
