As per "How to pass command line arguments to a rake task" I thought the following would work.
$ rake command -- other options
However the invocation fails with an invalid option error. The answer states:
note the
--, that's necessary for bypassing standard rake arguments.
It doesn't work for me. Is there a fix?
It turns out using key=value syntax works. So to set options use this.
$ rake command option= key=value
Which gives you arguments in the command.
args = ARGV.grep(/=/).map{ |s| [ *s.split(/=/), true ][0, 2] }.to_h
# => { "option" => true, "key" => "value" }
Or simpler for just keys.
args = ARGV.flat_map{ |s| s[/(\w+)=/, 1] }.compact
# => [ "option", "key" ]
