ruby on rails - Detect if application was started as HTTP server or not (rake task, rconsole etc)

Question

I'm using EventMachine and Monetarily to start e TCP server along with my rails application. This is started from config/initializers/momentarily.rb.

My problem is that it starts also when I run rake tasks, like db:migrate. I only want it to start when when I start the HTTP server. Environments won't help, since both the server start and rake tasks are under Development environment. Is there a way of knowing that the application is running the HTTP server as opposed to anything else? Note that is not only rake tasks, the EM starts also if I run the rails console, which is again something not desirable for my case.

Answer 1

unless File.basename($0) == "rake" && ARGV.include?("db:migrate")
  # you are not in rake db:migrate
end
