Pass ruby script file to rails console

Question

Is there a way to pass ruby file, foo.rb to rails console. Expected results would be after console starts rails environment to run file.

Or any other way which

Answer 1

Here's the hack I'm using:

rr() {
    rails_root="$(bundle exec rails runner "puts Rails.root")"
    rp="$(relpath "$1" "$rails_root")"
    bundle exec rails runner "eval(File.read '$rp')"
}
relpath() {python -c "import os.path; print os.path.relpath('$1','${2:-$PWD}')";}

Example:

cd ~/rails_project/app/helpers
rr my_script.rb

Based on @moritz's answer here. I changed it, since the working directory for File.read is the Rails project root.

I know this is some serious heresy, using python to help a ruby script. But I couldn't find a relpath method built into ruby.
