Hello, I would like to start the database server (postgres) before tests are run and stop it afterwards. For this, I have created a little wrapper around rake:
$ cat run-rake #! /bin/sh DB=`pwd`/db/pgdata # init database cluster if it does not exist yet [ -d $DB ] || initdb -D$DB # start the database server pg_ctl -D$DB -o "-h '' -k $DB" -l postgreslog start # wait for it to accept connections sleep 1 # run rake with original arguments rake "$*" # we're done, stop database server again pg_ctl -D$DB -o "-h '' -k $DB" -l postgreslog stop But this doesn't "feel" like RoR, So I'd like to integrate it into rake, so I can say "rake foobar" instead of "run-rake foobar" Any hints? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
