Hi capistranoers, As a longtime cap user, I am programmed to use the remote:<task> for most common tasks, and I know it's being deprecated, but in spite of bad habits, I still use it. I know it only works for the tasks that had the definition, and that's why it's being deprecated.
So, I used Geoffery Grosenbach's rake "method_missing" on the remote:
namespace to automatically make all tasks available, by just sending
them to cap:
whereas before you had:
namespace :remote do
desc "Removes unused releases from the releases directory."
task(:cleanup) { cap :cleanup }
desc "Used only for deploying when the spinner isn't running."
task(:cold_deploy) { cap :cold_deploy }
# etc. etc., repeated rules
end
Now instead all those tasks are gone and you can just add:
rule "" do |t|
if /(remote:)([^.]+)$/.match(t.name)
task_name = $2
cap task_name
end
end
Now when you run: remote:<whatever> it just sends cap <whatever>
Seems to be working well, but I'd love some comments or to see if this
works on all setups. I still left the remote:exec task, because
that's the other one I use.
patch attached. enjoy,
