Hi, I've created the following task:
============
desc "Backup the database by saving a dump"
task :backup_database, :roles => :db, :only => {:primary => true} do
run <<-CMD
right_now=$(date +"%m.%d.%Y-%H.%M.%S")
dumpfile=#{application}_#{database_name}-${right_now}.pg_dump
if [ ! -d #{deploy_to}/../database_backups ];
then
mkdir -p #{deploy_to}/../database_backups;
fi
pg_dump --format=c #{database_name} >
#{deploy_to}/../database_backups/$dumpfile
CMD
end
============
And here is the output of the task:
============
# cap -f config/deploy_to_demo backup_database
* executing task backup_database
* executing "right_now=$(date +\"%m.%d.%Y-%H.%M.%S\")\n

--format=c demo_site >

============
Anyone have any idea what this is all about? I suspect it's something
to do with whitespace and all those extra slashes, but I don't know if
it's a Capistrano bug or something environmental. I'm running
Capistrano on Mac OS X and deploying to a RH Linux server.
Thanks for any help.
