Using method within rake file tasks - ruby-on-rails

A set of rake tasks of a .rake file are structured as follows
task :process_data => :environment do
CSV.foreach("scores.tsv", :col_sep => "\t", headers: true) do |row|
begin
[...]
repeated_method_a
ad-hoc_method
repeated_method_b
rescue StandardError => e
end
end
end
How should this rake file be structured to process sub-methods, such as:
def repeated_method_a
do_its_thing
end

You can simply add it under your task in the same file, so you have this:
task :process_data => :environment do
CSV.foreach("scores.tsv", :col_sep => "\t", headers: true) do |row|
begin
[...]
repeated_method_a
ad-hoc_method
repeated_method_b
rescue StandardError => e
end
end
end
def repeated_method_a
do_its_thing
end

How to import images from CSV and attach to model with ActiveStorage?

I'm trying to import users avatar from a CSV and attach to the users with ActiveStorage.
I've created a rake task for this, but it's not working (and do not throws any error). In my CSV there are only 2 fields: email and avatar (avatar is the url to the file, that is on another server).
This is the task:
require 'csv'
namespace :import do
desc "Import avatars to users from CSV"
task avatars: :environment do
filename = File.join Rails.root, "avatars.csv"
CSV.foreach(filename, headers: true, col_sep: ";", header_converters: :symbol) do |row|
User.find_by(email: row[:email]) do |u|
u.avatar.attach(URI.parse(row[:avatar]).open)
end
end
end
end
Any advice?
Thanks for your help.
Have you tried to catch the any exception and print the problem in the console?
Something like that:
require 'csv'
namespace :import do
desc "Import avatars to users from CSV"
task avatars: :environment do
begin
filename = File.join Rails.root, "avatars.csv"
CSV.foreach(filename, headers: true, col_sep: ";", header_converters: :symbol) do |row|
User.find_by(email: row[:email]) do |u|
u.avatar.attach(URI.parse(row[:avatar]).open)
end
end
rescue StandardError => e
logger = Logger.new(STDOUT)
logger.error e.message
logger.error e.backtrace.join("\n")
end
end
end
Also, are you sure you have users with that email?

Issue when I want to import CSV file

I want to import users with a CSV file so I put this code in lib/task/import.rake :
require 'csv'
task :import => :environment do
CSV.foreach('db/test.csv', :headers => true) do |row|
UserManager::User.create!(row.hash)
end
end
Here is my CSV test file :
surname;name;email;password;password_confirmation
test;test;test#exemple.fr;pass;pass
And when I run rake import I get this error :
When assigning attributes, you must pass a hash as an argument.
Why did I get this error ?
To sum up the comment of Pavan and the solution of gunn, your code should be:
require 'csv'
task :import => :environment do
CSV.foreach('db/test.csv', :headers => true, col_sep: ';') do |row|
UserManager::User.create!(row.to_hash)
end
end
Those variables aren't comma separated, they're semicolon separated. So:
CSV.foreach('db/test.csv', headers: true, col_sep: ";")
I think it should be
require 'csv'
task :import => :environment do
CSV.foreach('db/test.csv', :headers => true) do |row|
UserManager::User.create!(row.to_hash)
end
end
row.hash will return an integer
Use this
require 'csv'
CSV.foreach(file.path, headers: false) do |row|
user_hash = {}
user_hash = {"surname"=> name,"last_name"=> last_name } #key value
User.create!(user_hash)
end
end
Try this ............
require 'csv'
#file with full path
file = "#{Rails.root}/public/file_name.csv"
#Reading file
user_file = CSV.read(file, :headers => true)
#Creating User
user = UserManager::User.where(:email => user_file['email']).first_or_create
if user.present?
user.name = user_file['email']
#Same other data ......
user.save!
end
Hope this will work for you.

How to use rescue in rake task

I have a rake task like this:
task :update_all => :environment do
codes = get_all_codes
codes.each{ |code| find_or_create_from_my_data(code) }
end
Sometimes the update fails, so I want to know with which code failed.
For that I wrote like this:
task :update_all => :environment do
begin
codes = get_all_codes
#code
codes.each{ |code| #code = code; find_or_create_from_my_data(code) }
rescue
p #code
end
end
It works fine, but I think it's a bit redundant. How can I write more effectively?
the e.message will display for you which code failed and why
task :update_all => :environment do
codes = get_all_codes
codes.each{ |code| find_or_create_from_my_data(code) }
rescue => e
puts "(#{e.message})"
end
How about this:
task :update_all => :environment do
get_all_codes.each do |code|
begin
find_or_create_from_my_data(code)
rescue
p code
end
end
end
This way, even if one code fails, it will print it out and move on to the other ones instead of aborting early.

Process CSV files in location relative to rake task

I have a rake task and CSV files that I need to process; they are located in sub-directory of the lib\tasks directory:
\foo
one.csv
two.csv
...
foo.rake
The task:
task foo: :environment do
# for each file in directory
Dir.foreach("./*.csv") do |file| # not valid
# process CSV file's content
CSV.foreach(file, {:headers => true, :col_sep => ";"}) do |row|
...
end
end # Dir
end # task
How do I references files that are relative to the rake task?
I got to thinking about this more and I think combining File.join and Dir.glob will allow you to process all your csv files:
require "csv"
foo_dir = File.join(Rails.root, "lib", "tasks", "foo")
task foo: :environment do
# for each file in directory
Dir.glob(foo_dir + "/*.csv") do |csv_file|
# process CSV file's content
CSV.foreach(csv_file, {:headers => true, :col_sep => ";"}) do |row|
#...
end
end # Dir
end # task
EDIT: As #craig pointed out in the comment below, this can be accomplished more succinctly by using File.dirname and __FILE__:
require "csv"
task foo: :environment do
# for each file in directory
Dir.glob(File.dirname(__FILE__) + "/*.csv").each do |file|
# process CSV file's content
CSV.foreach(csv_file, {:headers => true, :col_sep => ";"}) do |row|
#...
end
end # Dir
end # task

How to know if DB exists from within Rake task

How do i find out if the database exists from within a rake task?
that is, i'd like to do something like:
task :drop_and_create => :environment do
Rails.env = "development"
if (db_exists?)
Rake::Task["db:drop"].invoke
end
Rake::Task["db:create"].invoke
#more stuff...
end
how do i write the db_exists? condition?
How about instead doing a begin/rescue:
task :drop_and_create => :environment do
Rails.env = "development"
if (db_exists?)
begin
Rake::Task["db:drop"].invoke
rescue Exception => e
logger.debug("Error:#{e}")
Rake::Task["db:create"].invoke
#more stuff...
end
task :drop_and_create => :environment do
Rails.env = "development"
Rake::Task["db:reset"].invoke
#more stuff...
end
