Bootleg Task Providers

Sharing is a good thing. Bootleg supports loading tasks from packages in a manner very similar to Mix.Task.

You can create and share custom tasks by namespacing a module under Bootleg.Tasks and passing a block of Bootleg DSL:

defmodule Bootleg.Tasks.Foo do
  use Bootleg.Task do
    task :foo do
      IO.puts "Foo!!"
    end

    before_task :build, :foo
  end
end

In order to be found and loaded by Bootleg, external tasks need to be loaded via a Mix.Project dependency.

See also: Bootleg.Task for additional examples.
