Run Rake tasks

Name

In this field, specify the name of the current run/debug configuration.

Task name

Specify the name of the Rake task to be executed. Note that you can use autocompletion (Ctrl+Space) to see the available tasks.

note

If you don't see the desired Rake task in the dropdown, try reloading tasks.

Arguments

Specify arguments to be passed to the Rake task. These arguments should be separated with commas. For example:

• Create the sample Rake task as shown below:

  task :sample, [:first, :last] do |t, args|
  puts "First name is #{args.first}"
  puts "Last name is #{args.last}"
  end

• Create the Rake run configuration and specify its settings in the following way:

  • Task name: sample

  • Arguments: "Andrew", "Fuller"

• Run the created configuration. The program will return:

  First name is Andrew
  Last name is Fuller

Turn on invoke/execute tracing, enable full backtrace --trace

Enable the --trace Rake command-line option.

Do a dry run without executing actions -dry-run

Enable the --dry-run Rake command-line option.

Display the tasks and dependencies, then exit --prereqs

Enable the --prereqs Rake command-line option.

Attach test runner UI for frameworks

Depending on the used testing framework, enable the required test runner UI for performing tests.

Working directory

Specify the working directory used by the running task. For example, this option is in effect when the running script loads other scripts by relative paths.

Environment variables

Specify the list of environment variables as the name-value pairs, separated with semi-colons. Alternatively, click to create variables and specify their values in the Environment Variables dialog.

Ruby arguments

Specify the command-line arguments to be passed to the Ruby interpreter.

When such a run/debug configuration is launched, RubyMine analyzes the running processes, and does one of the following, depending on the presence of the running Nailgun server:

• If there is no running Nailgun server, or if there is a Nailgun server on a non-default port, or with a different gemset, then RubyMine suggests to specify the desired port number.

• If a Nailgun server runs on the default port with the required gemset, RubyMine does nothing.

• If a Nailgun server runs on a different port with the required gemset, then RubyMine suggests to specify the desired port number.

• If a Nailgun server runs on the default port with a different gemset, then RubyMine deletes the --ng argument.

Classpath property is added to Nailgun settings.

Ruby SDK

Specify the desired Ruby interpreter. You can choose the project default Ruby SDK, or select a different one from the list of configured Ruby SDKs.
