Rake Task with Cron Job

问题

I am trying to set up cron job to run a rake task daily. I currently have the following cron job (note, the time is all *'s because I want it to run every minute while testing)

* * * * * cd /home/jon/thestockenator/lib/tasks/ && ./get_current_data.sh

In the shell script I added the entire PATH to whatever the path is when cron runs it and call rake test_task.

I set up a basic rake task that simply outputs some text (because my real one takes a while to run)

task :test_task do
    puts "this is a rake task"
end

The cron job definitely runs and which rake works when run in the cron job.

I fixed it by adding this to the script:

source ~/.rvm/scripts/rvm
