I would like to be able to pass arguments for a task that I have to call from another task
Invoking without arguments works for me like this:
Rake::Task["mytask1"].invoke However with arguments like this it does not:
Rake::Task["mytask1[1,v18_0,20141230]"].invoke Thanks
you can try
Rake::Task[:my_task].invoke(1,'v18_0',20141230) or you can do
Rake.application.invoke_task("my_task[1, 'v18_0', 20141230]") 
.reenable to run the same task twice. See stackoverflow.com/questions/22639194/…You can pass in parameters through invoke
namespace :tester do desc "test" task :test, [:amount] => :environment do |task, args| puts "Your amount is #{args.amount}" end task :test_task do Rake::Task["tester:test"].invoke(100) end end rake tester:test_task Your amount is 100
