Guard::Rake

Guard::Rake allows you to automatically run a Rake task when files are modified.

Install

Please be sure to have Guard installed before continuing.

Install the gem:

$ gem install guard-rake```

Add it to your `Gemfile`

```ruby
gem 'guard-rake'

Add the default Guard::Rake template to your Guardfile by running this command:

$ guard init rake

Usage

Please read the Guard usage documentation.

Guardfile

Guard::Rake comes with a default template that looks like this:

guard 'rake', :task => 'doit' do
  watch(%r{^some_files/.+$})
end

This will run the rake task doit from your Rakefile whenever any of the watched files change.

List of available options:

:task => 'doit'              # name of the task to be executed, required
:run_on_all => false         # runs when the 'run_all' signal is received from Guard (enter is pressed), default: true
:run_on_start => true        # runs when guard is started, default: true
