I have a method where I would like output to occur via “puts” only if
its currently in the middle of a rake task or if its in the middle of a
migration.
How can I detect if the program execution is in the context of a
migration or a rake task?
Anybody?

Not sure about this, but I think calling self.class or self.parent
inside a migration task (self.up and self.down) should return
ActiveRecord::Migration.
I im interested in this question, has somebody the answer?
right, but Im talking about deep in the code, like in an ActiveRecord
model lets say.
I recently posted a similar question. No answer…

Hey guys, i’ve not tested it, but:
-
you are able to set environment variable when runing rake from
commandline -
you are able to test against ENV[:variable] in your code.
-
problem solved?
here is the inspiration:

i once had a similar problem. in my case i wanted to skip some code
whenever it is called from a rake task. back then i solved it the way
Frantisek P. proposed. still working, no problems. just set your
ENV-variable at the beginning of your rake task.
Create your own class that inherits ActiveRecord::Migration and use
it, defining the behavior you would like to have.
