Overview

Calling Torba::RakeTask.new defines a “torba:pack” Rake task that does the same thing as ‘bundle exec torba pack`. Furthermore, if the :before option is specified, the “torba:pack” task will be installed as a prerequisite to the specified task.

This is useful for deployment because it allows for packing as part of the “assets:precompile” flow, which platforms like Heroku already know to invoke. By hooking into “assets:precompile” as a prerequisite, Torba can participate automatically, with no change to the deployment process.

Typical use is as follows:

# In Rakefile
require "torba/rake_task"
Torba::RakeTask.new("torba:pack", :before => "assets:precompile")

You can also provide a block, which will be executed before packing process:

Torba::RakeTask.new do
  # some preconfiguration to be run when the "torba:pack" task is executed
end

Note that when you require “torba/rails” in a Rails app, this Rake task is installed for you automatically. You only need to install the task yourself if you are using something different, like Sinatra.
