Unable to build simple Rake Task - ruby-on-rails

I have created a Rake Task, called update_zendesk_rake.rb file, but every time I try to run it with the command
rake zendesk:update_zendesk_rake
I receive the error:
rake aborted!
Don't know how to build task 'zendesk:update_zendesk_rake' (See the list of available tasks with `rake --tasks`)

Nor does it show up when I list available tasks, which leads me to believe it's broken, however, I can't see where the error is.
app/_modules/ccenter/rake/update_zendesk_rake.rb
namespace :zendesk do
desc 'update status group values'
task update_zendesk_rake: :environment do
the_map = {
"yssse_ra"=>"legal",
"active"=>"active",
"after"=>"legal",
}
the_map.each { |k,v| CaseFileStatus.where(state: k).update_all(zendesk_status_group: v) }
end
end

From to the Rails guides about Custom Rake tasks:
Custom rake tasks have a .rake extension and are placed in Rails.root/lib/tasks. You can create these custom rake tasks with the bin/rails generate task command.
That means your file should be named like this:
lib/tasks/update_zendesk.rake
Note the file extension .rake instead of .rb.

This is the code on the rake task:
namespace :import_csv do
desc "import csv file"
task import_csv: :environment do
require 'smarter_csv'
filename = '/csv_imports/file.csv'
options = {:key_mapping => { :downcase_header => true }}
SmarterCSV.process(filename, options) do |array|
CsvImports.create( array.first )

This solved just witha dot. route issue.

Tasks: TOP => send_fetch_request
Yesterday it was working fine, I don't why rake is complaining today. Please help.
Please, look carefully at the error message:
NameError: undefined local variable or method `  FacebookCrawl' for main:Object
# ↑↑↑↑↑↑↑↑↑↑↑↑↑↑↑↑↑↑↑↑↑↑↑↑ ↑↑↑
The first giveaway is that you get a NameError for an undefined local variable or method, and not for a constant. The second giveaway is the name that Ruby complains about: it doesn't complain about FacebookCrawl, it complains about   FacebookCrawl.
In Ruby, only the Unicode characters U+0020 SPACE and U+0009 CHARACTER TABULATION are treated as whitespace. You have two Chinese U+3000 IDEOGRAPHIC SPACE characters, which Ruby simply treats as part of the name, and since they are not uppercase characters, it treats the name as a local variable or message send.
You should probably turn on visible whitespace in your editor, e.g. this is how your code looks in my editor, making it immediately obvious where the problem is:
Copy the facebook_crawl.rb in app/services folder & restart the server.
This is your business logic, so it should be in services folder & not in the models
So create a services folder as well in the app directory.

Is the above error misleading, and the problem lies somehwere in my code?

Rake aborted Uploading images using faker for ruby project

I am following a Ruby on Rails guide and ran into a problem generating fake content using the gem "Faker". I installed faker and followed the instructions to populate users and photos into my project. I created this file in lib/tasks/populate.rake
lib/tasks/populate.rake
namespace :db do
desc "Fill database with sample data"
task populate: :environment do
10.times do |n|
puts "[DEBUG] creating user #{n+1} of 10"
name = Faker::Name.name
email = "user-#{n+1}#example.com"
password = "password"
User.create!( name: name,
email: email,
password: password,
password_confirmation: password)
end
User.all.each do |user|
puts "[DEBUG] uploading images for user #{user.id} of #{User.last.id}"
10.times do |n|
image = File.open(Dir.glob(File.join(Rails.root, 'sampleimages', '*')).sample)
description = %w(cool awesome crazy wow adorbs incredible).sample
user.pins.create!(image: image, description: description)
end
end
end
end
Now all I am supposed to do is put "rake db:populate" in my terminal (and in the right folder). When I do this I get:
rake db:populate
[DEBUG] creating user 1 of 10
[DEBUG] creating user 2 of 10

My big concern here is
"rake aborted!
can't convert nil into String"
It appears it created users but did not upload any pictures.
Question:
a) Why is rake being aborted?
b) How can I delete the users I created? The only way I know is" User.all" then User.delete(put a number here)...Are there more efficient ways of doing this?
Help would be greatly appreciated :) Thanks!
Your <rails_root>/sampleimages directory is empty. Dir.glob(...) is returning an empty array and when you call sample it's returning nil. When you call File.open(nil) you get the exception and rake aborts.
If you want to delete all rows in the users table you can do User.destroy_all.

uninitialized constant APN::App::RAILS_ENV

I'm struggling with this error after I fire the command rake apn:notifications:deliver on the APN on Rails gem that I've installed.
It's barking about the RAILS_ENV variable. I've tried a couple of forks that change RAILS_ENV to Rails.env but I still get the same error. I've posted my issue over on that repo hoping I might get somewhere.
I don't know enough about rails to dig in any further. I'm hoping someone could point me in the right direction so that I can a) better understand what went wrong and b) fix the problem.
I am using bundler and I'm pointing my gem file to the git repo: rake apn:notifications:deliver

Tasks: TOP => apn:notifications:deliver
Which version of Rails to you use? I just ran into this issue too. My Rails knowledge is not very deep, but it seems like the problem is deprecation of RAILS_* environment variables. I use Rails 3.1.0 and I do NOT have:
RAILS_ROOT/ENV/blah
in my environment. Instead, I have:
Rails.root/env/blah
When I replace RAILS_ENV with Rails.env in app/models/apn/app.rb the problem goes away.
So, is this gem compatible with Rails 3.1.0??? It seems not. Is there a workaround that will allow its use in a Production environment? Maybe define somewhere:
APN::App::RAILS_ENV = Rails.env
But where?
UPDATE:
I got it working with a workaround described by garyfoster here: https://github.com/PRX/apn_on_rails/issues/53.
To summarize, three things:
1) Add this ghetto hack to your config/environment.rb file:
APN::App::RAILS_ENV = Rails.env
2) Insert your certs in the APN::App table. I wrote a one-time rake task for that:
task :init_apn_certs => [:environment] do # NOTE: One-time task...
print "Creating APN::App with certs..."
app = APN::App.create(:apn_dev_cert => Rails.root.join('config', 'apple_push_notification_development.pem').read,
:apn_prod_cert => Rails.root.join('config', 'apple_push_notification_production.pem').read)
puts (app.valid? ? "done" : "failed")
end
3) Write your own rake task that bypasses the APN::App.send_notifications method, as that barfs with another error (something about '/config/apple_push_notification_development.pem' not existing). My code for it:
task :deliver_notifications => [:environment] do
print "Delivering APNs for app ids..."
apps = APN::App.all
apps.each do |app|
app.send_notifications
print app.id.to_s + "..."
end
puts "done."
end
Or, if you have only one app, you can just do this and be done with it:
task :deliver_notifications => [:environment] do
APN::App.first.send_notifications
end
DISCLAIMER: I'm yet to test this on Staging and Production (will do so by the end of the week), but I see no reason why it shouldn't work.
