In: |

RakeFileUtils provides a custom version of the FileUtils methods that respond to the verbose and nowrite commands.
nowrite_flag | [RW] | |
verbose_flag | [RW] |
Get/set the nowrite flag controlling output from the FileUtils utilities. If verbose is true, then the utility method is echoed to standard output.
Examples:
nowrite # return the current value of the nowrite flag nowrite(v) # set the nowrite flag to _v_. nowrite(v) { code } # Execute code with the nowrite flag set temporarily to _v_. # Return to the original value when code is done.
Get/set the verbose flag controlling output from the FileUtils utilities. If verbose is true, then the utility method is echoed to standard output.
Examples:
verbose # return the current value of the verbose flag verbose(v) # set the verbose flag to _v_. verbose(v) { code } # Execute code with the verbose flag set temporarily to _v_. # Return to the original value when code is done.
Use this function to prevent protentially destructive ruby code from running when the :nowrite flag is set.
Example:
when_writing("Building Project") do project.build end
The following code will build the project under normal conditions. If the nowrite(true) flag is set, then the example will print:
DRYRUN: Building Project
instead of actually building the project.
