Rake::Contrib

Additional libraries for Rake.

This gem was extracted from Rake when v11.0 was released.

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'rake-contrib'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install rake-contrib

Usage

See also rake-contrib API documentation at RubyDoc.info for full details.

SshPublisher

This gem comes with a simple SSH publishing class, to copy files to a remote host.

In your Rakefile:

require 'rake/contrib/sshpublisher'

This gives your Rake tasks access to these utility classes around the Unix scp command:

• SshDirPublisher - A publisher to scp all files in local directory to given remote directory on SSH host.
• SshFilePublisher - A publisher to scp given files in local directory to given remote directory on SSH host.
• SshFreshDirPublisher - Like SshDirPublisher, but removes and replaces given directory.
• CompositePublisher - Manage several publishers as a single entity.

Development

After checking out the repo, run bin/setup to install dependencies. Then, run rake test to run the tests. You can also run bin/console for an interactive prompt that will allow you to experiment.

To install this gem onto your local machine, run bundle exec rake install. To release a new version, update the version number in version.rb, and then run bundle exec rake release, which will create a git tag for the version, push git commits and tags, and push the .gem file to rubygems.org.
