How do I run a rails command command from a shell script?

Question

Say I wanted to run 'User.all.each{|u| u.destroy}' from a shell script called killallusers.sh. How can I call Rails console commands from the shell or from an executable script?

Either write it as a Rake task, or use Rails "runner".

Inside your shell script put the appropriate rake or runner command.
