Disabling plugin code in generators/migrations

September 21st, 2006 | Rails, Rake

I have found on numerous occasions that I need to disable certain plugin functionality if running a generator / rake db:migrate etc.

An easy way to disable certain functionality follows:

def method_that_shouldnt_be_run_in_migrations_or_generators
  # Return if we are using a generator or migrations
  script = File.basename($0)
  return if (script == 'generate') || (script == 'rake' && ARGV[0] =~ /migrate$/)
end
