I have a series of rspec tests which I use to make sure some web scraping services I wrote are still valid. I have all of these inside a GEM which my rails app requires and I'm not quite sure how to embed a rake task of spec for an external gem? I'm not sure that is at all clear, I have a gem w/rspecs: Gem w/rspecs MyApp I would lik...
I have been playing around with Rake and Albacore, to see if I can replace our existing MSBuild script that deploys software with something that isn't XML. I have a task that will change the debug value inside a web.config to false. The task takes the directory of the web.config as an argument, but I can't quite figure out the syntax n...

Is there a way to add Growl notifications to the end of all Rake tasks? I initially thought of creating a task that Growls, and adding it as a dependency to tasks I want alerts from, but realized the dependencies get run before the task begins. Is there a way to add tasks to be run after certain Rake tasks are finished? It'd be really...
I am trying to run jruby -S rake db:migrate, but I do not want to start up a daemon in config/initializers whenever I do a migrate. Is there a way to do this? Up until now, I have just been moving the daemon file to a file with a .bak extension so that rails doesn't load it when I do the migrate. I suspect that this is a stupid way of ...
Hi, I have to implement a fairly database intensive task periodically. I am using rails for the application to which this task is related and thus for the sake of easiness and uniqueness in approach I want to know how can I best implement cron job with rails.

Examples: Updating Ubuntu, installing gems with dependencies etc. Creating a new Rails app, Git initialize it and commit, create Heroku project and upload the app. Automatize basic file/folder operati...
I'll keep it short, I've got a rails app which communicate with other apps, some using SOAP (non-rails apps of course...) and others with REST. I'm making integration tests to ensure that my endpoint wrapper classes have correct mappings and setup. However, they are executed by default by rake test which makes it slow and fragile. I wish...

We're using Rake with Albacore for our build & deploy process in TeamCity but my latest solution is causing me problems when I compile. When I run msbuild I get the following error: C:\Program Files (x86)\MSBuild\Microsoft\VisualStudio\v9.0\WebApplications\Microsoft.WebApplication.targets(60,3): error MSB3021: Unable to copy file "bin...
I've upgraded my app from using config.gem to a Gemfile with bundler and have noticed that my unit tests have now stopped running. It's a bit strange and I'm not entirely sure where to start looking.

I have a couple simple rake tasks hosted at github that I would like to push to a remote server. It's essentially just a directory with a few classes and a Rakefile. What would be the best and/or simplest approach for deployment? I'm thinking the simplest might be just to clone the repo on my server and do a git pull whenever there's an...
