How to pass command line arguments to a rake task

Question

I have a rake task that needs to insert a value into multiple databases.

I\'d like to pass this value into the rake task from the command line, or from another

Answer 1

The ways to pass argument are correct in above answer. However to run rake task with arguments, there is a small technicality involved in newer version of rails

It will work with rake "namespace:taskname['argument1']"

Note the Inverted quotes in running the task from command line.
