I'm trying to pass arguments to a Rake task and access my model as mentioned in "How to pass command line arguments to a rake task" and "Do rails rake tasks provide access to ActiveRecord models?".

However adding => :environment to this code:

require 'rake'

namespace :genre do
    desc "Add a genre"
    task :add, :genre_id, :name => :environment do |t, args|
        puts args.name  
    end
end

Gives me this error when I run the task:

rake genre:add['1','Abc']
rake aborted!
undefined method `map' for :name:Symbol

(See full trace by running task with --trace)

If I delete => :environment it works just fine.

UPDATE:

TRACE:

rake --trace genre:add['1','Abc']
rake aborted!
undefined method `map' for :name:Symbol
