How to pass the args from comandline to the tasks

[harrytran998]

We have some db migration tasks. And a command-like script below. So what if I want to run the command like prisma resolve --applied "file_name" --> moon api:db.apply filename --> not worked

I already traced the docs, but it might be hard for me right now. Could anyone suggest a solution for this thing?

tasks:
  db.apply:
    preset: "server"
    command: "prisma resolve --applied"

@harrytran998 You just need to add -- between the moon command and the args to pass down, so it'll probably be: moon api:db.apply -- filename

This doesn't behave as I'd expect it to:

tasks:

  echo:
    command: |
      echo "\[ARG: ${*} \]"

> moon run user-app:echo -- help me
▪▪▪▪ user-app:echo
[ARG: ] help me
▪▪▪▪ user-app:echo (1ms)

Tasks: 1 completed
 Time: 2ms

Now with a normal bash file:

#!/bin/bash
echo "[ARG: ${*}]"

and using it

> ./test.sh help me
[ARG: help me]

@airtonix Try script instead of command.

@milesj Thanks for the idea, but it still doesn't feel right:

tasks:
  echo:
    script: |
      echo "Hello World" && echo "[ARG ${*} ]"

> moon run user-app:echo -- test
▪▪▪▪ user-app:echo
Hello World
[ARG  ]
▪▪▪▪ user-app:echo (1ms)

Tasks: 1 completed
 Time: 2ms

@milesj perhaps you meant this? https://moonrepo.dev/docs/config/project#script.

nvm. it's exactly what you meant.

Not sure what to say, we literally just execute the command like spawn(command, ...args).
