Re: [Rails] Rake tasks

2014-11-24 Thread Jason Fleetwood-Boldt
Robert,

I can't tell you all the ins and outs of your script but what you're seeing 
here is that rake is looking at the V thinking it is another rake task you want 
to run (that's why the first one succeeds and then gives you the error)

You probably want something like V=true or V=1 or something like that.

 I'll give it a try, still trying to figure out how to run the task. I
 put the app in development environment with the Apache directive and
 this is all the deprecated info I mentioned and other output when trying
 to bundle exec, I get Don't know how to build task 'utils:archives'.
 Is this how I should be trying to run the task?
 
 Never mind my last post, I looked up the command used in cron and made an 
 adjustment to the DIR for my local box and got the expected response.
 
  bundle exec rake utils:process_archives V DIR=/tmp
 
 I updated the verbose line to recognize the 'V' argument as suggested and it 
 does output the conditional puts lines, but I do get the following at the 
 end
 
  rake aborted!
  Don't know how to build task 'V'
 
 The task does appear to complete successfully, with comments if I specify 'V' 
 and without if not, as expected. Is this normal or should I be applying the 
 argument differently?

Normally you run

rake some_task X=abc Y=xyz


I see this piece of code at the start of the task assuming an argument 
could be used to get the verbose response


@verbose = false
ARGV.each do |arg|
  puts arg: #{arg}
  @verbose = false # if arg == 'V'
end

Then the code uses '#puts something if @verbose' throughout. Like I 
said, I'm new to ruby, but have used Perl and PHP and other languages 
before, I hope is what is throwing me off is the # are not comments? 
This almost looks like @verbose would always be false. What is this 
piece of code looking for as an argument?


I apologize for trying to get a crash course in ruby here, gonna have to 
get up to speed soon as this app that was left to me to try and 
maintain/support. I am reading through the following tutorial to get up 
to speed as quickly as I can, any other pointers extremely helpful...


https://www.railstutorial.org/book



But note that you probably want to prefix the rake task in development with bundle 
exec to get it to run with the right gemset.



I downloaded a copy of the app and setup locally on a development 
server. The production app is running on nginx web server and have the 
copy running on Apache locally. I saw the following directive available 
in the nginx conf to enable development, copied to Apache and this is 
how I am running dev mode...


RailsEnv development

Then I can run bundle exec rake utils:process_archives?

As I posted earlier, there is a script/process_archives.sh file that I 
thought at first runs the rake task since I see results of the task in 
the cron log...


rake utils:process_archives DIR=/var/www/virtual//htdocs//tmp 
RAILS_ENV=production


But that DIR does not exist on the server, so I'm questioning if this 
shell script is being used at all. I found further the task in 
config/schedule.rb...


command %{#{cmd_root}  cd /var/www/vhosts/wmnf/current  bundle exec 
rake utils:process_archives DIR=/var/www/vhosts//shared/tmp 
RAILS_ENV=production}


Those dirs do exist and I also found in the crontabs...

root@app01:~/www# cat /var/spool/cron/crontabs/appuser |grep process
31 * * * * /bin/bash -l -c 'PATH=/opt/ree/bin:$PATH  cd 
/var/www/vhosts//current  bundle exec rake utils:process_archives 
DIR=/var/www/vhosts//shared/tmp RAILS_ENV=production  
/var/www/vhosts//shared/log/cron.log 21'


Is the scheduler.rb being used at all?

Another thing about running the app locally on a development server is 
when I enable development as shown above, it breaks links to images, 
css, etc. Seems there is something in the code to prefix the paths of 
those resources with '/app_development/' when using development 
environment. So, I'm running in production environment on the 
development server. Other than references like this in the code for 
development, what would be the difference between running a copy of the 
app under the production or development environment on the development 
server?


Again, thanks a ton for any help and patience, I promise to get up to 
speed as quickly as possible.

You're reading things correctly.

# starts a comment
@verbose is always false in this code, and would be even if the if were not 
commented out

The code doesn't even make sense as the result of someone trying to comment out 
something to hard-wire @verbose to one value or the other...

Re: [Rails] Rake tasks

2014-11-18 Thread Jason Fleetwood-Boldt

Robert,

1) The same deprecation warnings probably happen when you just run rails c or 
rails s, right? If so, those are just general deprecation warnings that are 
happening when you boot up the app. Today, you can ignore them (hence, 
warning). In the long run, you'll want to fix those as you upgrade gems and 
refactor code.

2) Custom rake tasks (defined in your app) should have a description above 
them. You actually put the description on its own line above the line that 
starts with the word task (slightly confusing). See the section Describing 
Your Tasks here http://jasonseifer.com/2010/04/06/rake-tutorial

You'll notice that desc comes on its own line before the task line. If you fail 
to put that description in, your Rake task will still run, but it won't show up 
in the rake -T output. 

Finally, you probably almost certainly don't want to be running 
RAILS_ENV=production if you are developing locally on your own machine. And 
learn to use a debugger-- I recommend byebug if you're using Ruby 2.0 or above, 
and put byebug at the top of your rake task. Then just run your rask task and 
verify that you fall into the debugger. (I'm telling you this as a sanity check 
methodology because you are trying to verify that you know how to run the task)

Hope that helps.
-Jason

Thanks for the info and help. The app is on ruby 1.9.3, I was running 
rake on the production machine. I downloaded the app and have it running 
locally, but there are some display issues with development, so I was 
running production.


I see the task is running via cron every hour, it talks to an ftp server 
and gets a file list, then creates playlist files from the list of MP3 
files it finds. I see the task has a lot of puts when 'ARGV = V', should 
I be able to run the task with the following command?


# rake utils:process_archive V'

Re: [Rails] Rake tasks

2014-11-18 Thread Jason Fleetwood-Boldt

Without seeing the task I can't tell you the answer to that. And the fact that 
it runs on a cron schedule means that you probably have something like a worker 
in the background doing that.

Normally you run 

rake some_task X=abc Y=xyz

where X and Y are arguments being passed in.

But note that you probably want to prefix the rake task in development with 
bundle exec to get it to run with the right gemset.

 RAILS_ENV=production if you are developing locally on your own
 machine. And learn to use a debugger-- I recommend byebug if you're
 using Ruby 2.0 or above, and put byebug at the top of your rake task.
 Then just run your rask task and verify that you fall into the debugger.
 (I'm telling you this as a sanity check methodology because you are
 trying to verify that you know how to run the task)
 
 Thanks for the info and help. The app is on ruby 1.9.3, I was running rake on 
 the production machine. I downloaded the app and have it running locally, but 
 there are some display issues with development, so I was running production.
 
 I see the task is running via cron every hour, it talks to an ftp server and 
 gets a file list, then creates playlist files from the list of MP3 files it 
 finds. I see the task has a lot of puts when 'ARGV = V', should I be able to 
 run the task with the following command?
 
 # rake utils:process_archive V'
