Writing rake tasks, how do I interactively debug them in RubyMine?
I'm writing a Gem that contains Rake tasks. I want to set breakpoints and inspect the gem codebase during task execution. How can I do this in RubyMine? I tried setting up a Rake debug config, but when I run it in the IDE I get the response "don't know how to build task 'taskname'"
This Gem is not consumed by other code, its tasks are commands I use from the command shell (os/x terminal window) to manage devops tasks.
So I don't have another codebase I can step into these tasks from...

Hello, Scott,
do the rake tasks fail while running (not debugging) with the same message? Please check the following discussion, it seems to be related to your problem:
