Coals

Built to ease the pain of navigating a large collection of rake tasks. Simply type coals from a project root and coals will walk you through the available groups, tasks, and any necessary arguments to run the command.

Features:

• See all rake tasks in your project in an organized format.
• Easily find the task you're looking for.
• No need to dig through the code to recall what arguments a task requires
• Verification step so you can see the fully constructed command before execution.
• TODO: Configurable execution prefix (bundle exec(default), zeus rake, etc..)
• TODO: Aliases for common task arguments, e.g.

  $ coals --set-alias me timmehs@github.com
  Coals alias "me" set to timmehs@github.com
  

• TODO: Colors and Formatting
• TODO: Command help docs
