Rails - Mar 2007 - Calling a controller action from script/console or runner

Is there a way to call or invoke a controller method from script/console
or script/runner? The reason is that I''d like to pre-cache some of the
actions on my controller.

The pseudo code below is what I''d like to be able to do:

class MyController < ApplicationController

  caches_action :test

  def test
    puts ''Hi there''
  end

end

script/console:
>> MyController.test
=> ''Hi there''


Thanks.

Hi Mark, it seems that you''re trying to invoke an instance using class
method syntax.  Thus, you''ll need to do the following in
script/console:

1) controller = MyController.new <RETURN>

2) controller.test <RETURN>

Good luck,

-Conrad

I see, cool. Thanks Conrad!

Do you think that''s the best way to pre-cache some of the
controller''s
actions?

Thanks.
