How can I bind keys for running the default rake command? about projectile-rails HOT 6 CLOSED

Hmm can you be more specific? You are running projectile-rails-rake and you are getting the error?

from projectile-rails.

@asok sorry I wasn't more clear.

Everything works as expected out of the box. No bugs. ✔️

C-c r ! r RET will run the default rake task. I'd like to bind that to something a little shorter that doesn't require a RET at the end (e.g. just s-t).

( I know how to do keybindings but the ARG part of the (projectile-rails-rake ARG) is tripping me up. )

A little more info:

I guess the ARG part is probably just the universal arguments and not my actual problem.

(global-set-key (kbd "s-t") 'projectile-rails-rake)

Launches the projectile-rails-rake interactive task picker but I still have to manually hit RET to run the default task

the macro (global-set-key (kbd "s-t") (kbd "C-c r ! r")) tries to run the task "[No match]"

@semanticart I'm not sure that (global-set-key (kbd "s-t") (kbd "C-c r ! r")) can work as you expect.
kbd returns a string, and global-set-key expects a symbol naming a command as the second argument.
But the main issue here is that I've implemented the code in the way that it is not possible to pass a name of a task to run.

Do you need to run the tests via rake? Or maybe you could use rspec-mode or ruby-test-mode?
Also you could try to do something like this:

(defun run-default-rake-task ()
  (interactive)
  (compile "rake" 'projectile-rails-compilation-mode))

(define-key projectile-rails-mode-map (kbd "s-t") 'run-default-rake-task)

@asok thanks for the advice. The provided code works great.

I'll check out those other two modes as well. Cheers!

@semanticart of course if you are using bundler or some pre-loader raplece "rake" with i.e. "bundle exec rake".
