Simplest of template files, tst.rb, contains:
PROJECT_NAME = File.basename(RAILS_ROOT) run 'echo ' + PROJECT_NAME
Running command "rails tst -m ~/Rails_Tools/tst.rb" produces:
create create app/controllers . . create log/development.log create log/test.log applying template: /Users/rick/RailsTools/tst.rb Anonymous modules have no name to be referenced by
Then, cd tst and running command "rake rails:template LOCATION=~/ Rails_Tools/tst.rb" produces:
(in /Users/rick/tst) applying template: /Users/rick/RailsTools/tst.rb executing echo tst from /Users/rick/tst applied /Users/rick/RailsTools/tst.rb
Why the different behavior - what changes between rails runtime environment and rake runtime environment?
