load_tasks loads the active record database tasks twice causing them to execute twice in certain scenarios

I've noticed that when I have a simple Rakefile like this

Bundler.require(:default)
StandaloneMigrations::Tasks.load_tasks

Running the command bin/rake db:schema:load with my structure.sql will fail with confusing errors, because my structure.sql file does not work when it's run twice.

I discovered these two lines below cause the db:schema:load task to be defined twice in rake, and thus rake executes them twice.

standalone-migrations/lib/standalone_migrations/tasks.rb

Line 14 in b136d01

MinimalRailtieConfig.load_tasks

standalone-migrations/lib/standalone_migrations/tasks.rb

Line 22 in b136d01

load "active_record/railties/databases.rake"

I was able to prevent it locally with the following monkey patch.

module Kernel
  alias old_load load

  def load(*args, **kwargs)
    return old_load(*args, **kwargs) unless args[0] == "active_record/railties/databases.rake"
    @@load ||= old_load(*args, **kwargs)
  end
end

According to rake, executing tasks twice when defining them twice is intended behaviour: ruby/rake#228 (comment)

I finally figured this out. The issue boils down to incompatibility with the strong_migrations gem. Here's a very simple Rakefile to reproduce the issue.

require 'rails' # need to make sure defined?(Rails) is true for strong_migrations
require 'strong_migrations'
require 'standalone_migrations'

StandaloneMigrations::Tasks.load_tasks

strong_migrations through a series of require s calls load "active_record/railties/databases.rake".
