Any support for loading rake tasks defined in plugins?

I need to be able to run custom tasks against a Discourse forum. Is there any way of loading rake tasks defined in a plugin so that these can be used in production?

I think this should work. Just put them in the same directory in the plugin as where they live in core.

I’ve done this in the past with creating a rake task that runs after another but haven’t created a standalone task.

Yep this works. It didn’t appear to work for me at first hence me asking the question, but I’ve tried this again and works first time.

I added my rake task in lib/tasks in my plugin. Thought I’d confirm this works for anyone else that stumbles upon this.

Anyone experience lib/tasks rake tasks executing twice? Ours seems to execute twice from rake subscriptions:procourse_convert.

Hi @kimardenmiller , did you ever find an answer to why your rake task executes twice?

I think it might have had something to do with declaring the same method in two places, which I think caused it to run twice. Not verified, but check for that.

EDIT: Acho que descobri como isso acontece.

Não está realmente seguindo a convenção, ou talvez demais.

O problema é se você referenciar o arquivo rake em plugin.rb, ele parece rodar duas vezes, mas a tarefa rake é incluída mesmo que você não a referencie, então não há necessidade de carregá-la durante a inicialização.

Pelo que sei, não há nenhuma lógica específica do Discourse aqui. Minha suposição seria que os arquivos de tarefa são carregados automaticamente se você definiu um ::Rails::Engine para o seu plugin?
