Question

I have some Rake tasks I’d like to use in my Rakefiles. Is it possible to include tasks defined in one rakefile from another rakefile?

Answer 1

Rake files are nothing different than ruby files.
So just load the file A containing the other tasks in your file B and they will be available when B is executed.

For instance, if you put the following code in your Rakefile

Dir['tasks/*.rake'].each { |file| load(file) }

then you can create as many .rake files in the tasks subfolder and call them from the main Rakefile.
