Rake

Last modified: 17 June 2024

Rake is a popular task runner for Ruby and Rails applications. For example, Rails provides the predefined Rake tasks for creating databases, running migrations, and performing tests. You can also create custom tasks to automate specific actions - run code analysis tools, backup databases, and so on.

IntelliJ IDEA provides a convenient way to run, debug, and reload Rake tasks. Moreover, you can use run/debug configurations to run tasks with specific parameters: you can pass task arguments, specify environment variables, and so on.
