Rails defining task

i've got several tasks like this:

desc "Generate and send something"
 task(:generate_something => :environment) do

Those were situtated in lib/tasks

Is there any possibility to don't set up the environment? I want that the task find out by it selve which environment is active at the moment?

You can simply test the Rails.env variable as in the app itself:

desc "Test task"
task :blaff do
  puts Rails.env
  puts Rails.env.production?
end

Now you can run this in any environment you want:

% rake blaff 
development
false

% RAILS_ENV=production rake blaff
production
true

% RAILS_ENV=test rake blaff
test
false
