A Rake task appears in rake -T if it has a description:
desc 'Compile assets'
task :compile do
...
end
To not list it, simply omit the description:
task :compile do
...
end
You can also hide a Rake task that has been defined by someone else (like a gem) by removing the description:
Rake::Task['compile'].clear_comments
Or you can whitelist which tasks should be listed:
visible_tasks = %w(compile build package)
Rake::Task.tasks.each do |task|
visible_tasks.include?(task.name) or task.clear_comments
end
