Using Aliases with Destinations

[JensRavens]

I'm currently giving kamal 2.2 a spin and would like to roll it out with multiple stages (via the destinations feature). The config promotes the feature of aliases, so I created an alias for the rails console:

aliases:
  console: app exec --interactive --reuse "bin/rails console"

Now my question: How do I use an alias in a certain destination? Running kamal console -d staging executes the command on the default destination (and sending the argument along to it), while running kamal -d staging console fails (with Could not find command "console".).

Hi @JensRavens,

Setting options before that command name doesn't work for any command - I think this is a limit of Thor, rather than Kamal. It does seem to give a different error for aliases though so I'll look into that.

However, I can't reproduce the problem with the wrong destination being used when calling kamal console -d staging - could you post the command output?

I guess I just had a weird case of a heisen-bug. Just tried it again and the correct destination was used this time. Thanks! :)
