Calling Rake Tasks before specs

Closed this issue · 3 comments

I need to call rake tasks before running specs so I don't have to duplicate it in using a scenario or somewhere else. Is this possible? I tried adding in the initializer but I get an error when calling certain task like db:seed.

example error

20:40:10 server.1  | /Users/abyrd1/.rbenv/versions/2.7.7/lib/ruby/gems/2.7.0/gems/activerecord-5.2.8.1/lib/active_record/dynamic_matchers.rb:22:in `method_missing': undefined method `mount_uploader' for #<Class:0x00007fcff553b5c0> (NoMethodError)
20:40:10 server.1  |    from /Users/abyrd1/Code/cubie/app/models/user.rb:38:in `<class:User>'
20:40:10 server.1  |    from /Users/abyrd1/Code/cubie/app/models/user.rb:37:in `<top (required)>'

user.rb

class User < ApplicationRecord
  mount_uploader :avatar, AvatarUploader
  mount_uploader :signature, SignatureUploader

config/initializers/cypress_on_rails.rby

  return unless ENV['CYPRESS'].present?

  Rails.application.load_tasks unless defined?(Rake::Task)

  # CypressOnRails.hooks.before_server_start do
  Rake::Task["db:seed"].invoke
  # end

I'm looking for something similar to what is described here(different gem).

Maybe instead try running it from cypress_helper.rb and you could use system to execute it so you don't have to load the tasks into the running application.

system "RAILS_ENV=test bin/rails db:seed"

@grantspeelman Looks like it was an issue with Carrierwave. I needed to require the module by adding require 'carrierwave/orm/activerecord' to the file. I was able to get this working in a scenario. Haven't tried the cypress_helper or initializer.
