Run rake tasks in sequence

Question

I have rake tasks which i want to run in proper sequence.

I want to run one rake task which run other rake tasks in proper sequence.

How may i do that?

Answer 1

you should consider defining dependencies between your tasks like this

  task :primary => [:secondary]

  task :secondary do
    puts "Doing Secondary Task" 
  end

But if you really, really need to call the tasks directly you can use invoke to call another task

  task :primary do
    Rake::Task[:secondary].invoke
  end

  task :secondary do
    puts "Doing Secondary Task" 
  end
