== Rake tasks ==
When you created the plugin with the built-in rails generator, it generated a rake file for you in 'vendor/plugins/yaffle/tasks/yaffle.rake'. Any rake task you add here will be available to the app.
Many plugin authors put all of their rake tasks into a common namespace that is the same as the plugin, like so:
*vendor/plugins/yaffle/tasks/yaffle.rake*
[source, ruby]
---------------------------------------------------------
namespace :yaffle do
desc "Prints out the word 'Yaffle'"
task :squawk => :environment do
puts "squawk!"
end
end
---------------------------------------------------------
When you run `rake -T` from your plugin you will see:
---------------------------------------------------------
yaffle:squawk # Prints out the word 'Yaffle'
---------------------------------------------------------
You can add as many files as you want in the tasks directory, and if they end in .rake Rails will pick them up.
Note that tasks from 'vendor/plugins/yaffle/Rakefile' are not available to the main app.
