I'm trying to pass in conditions to a find command in a rake task. I'm still a little new to this, but what is the best practices for this? Should I be passing in a hash or.. Any suggestions welcome!

command line: rake mytask conditions='condition = 1'

#mytask.rake def conditions   ENV['conditions'] || ENV['conditions'] || nil end

task :metadata => :environment do   klass.find_each(:start => start, :conditions => conditions) do

record>

  #do stuff   end end

thanks!
