API Rake Tasks

The Manifold API application is a Rails application and, as such, it includes a number of Rake tasks. In a packge environment, you run these tasks with manifold-api task_name. If Manifold has been deployed from source, you can run Rake tasks with rake task_name or rails task_name from the API directory. In addition to standard Rails rake tasks and command line interfaces, Manifold includes a number of custom tasks:

rake manifold:attachments:replace

rake manifold:cache:prime

rake manifold:development:seed

rake manifold:import:projects

rake manifold:import:texts

rake manifold:job:queue_fetch_all_tweets

rake manifold:project:fetch_tweets

rake manifold:project:import

rake manifold:project:import:drive:resources

rake manifold:project:ingest

rake manifold:search:reindex

rake manifold:search:reindex:annotations

rake manifold:search:reindex:makers

rake manifold:search:reindex:projects

rake manifold:search:reindex:resource_collections

rake manifold:search:reindex:resources

These tasks are mainly used for debugging purposes and maintenance tasks. However, they can also be helpful for automating some tasks on a Manifold instance.
