Module: Capistrano::ImmutableTask

Defined in:
lib/capistrano/immutable_task.rb

Overview

This module extends a Rake::Task to freeze it to prevent it from being enhanced. This is used to prevent users from enhancing a task at the wrong point of Capistrano’s boot process, which can happen if a Capistrano plugin is loaded in deploy.rb by mistake (instead of in the Capfile).

Usage:

task = Rake.application task.invoke task.extend(Capistrano::ImmutableTask) # prevent further modifications
