Rails Prune
A rake task for Rails to truncate your database without having to drop it.
Installation
Add this line to your application's Gemfile:
gem "rails_prune"
Usage
You'll have two additional rake tasks, rake -T
:
…
rake db:prune # Truncate the database (from rails_prune gem)
rake prune:environment # An overridable environment for rails_prune gem
…
Warning: this will wipe your database, be careful! By default prune:environment
will
abort in production.
Overriding environment check
Sometimes you want to prune in production, e.g. if you run staging on the production environment. While scary, it is possible to override the environment check by putting the following code in your Rakefile:
Rake::Task["prune:environment"].clear
task "prune:environment" => [:environment] do
# Replace the below code with whatever madness you prefer.
abort "[ERROR] Cannot prune #{Rails.env} environment." if Rails.env.production?
end
