executable file not found in $PATH

[Drallas]

When I try to run functions I created in my .zshrc
task: [test:testfunc] run_test_func

I see an "executable file not found in $PATH" message.

How can i call those custom functions from Taskfile?

Task does not use your local shell to run commands (It uses gosh from mvdan/sh), so your .profile, .bashrc, .zshrc etc files are not being read. This means that your $PATH is not being set and your custom functions are not available.

You have a couple of options to make this work. The simplest is probably to invoke your shell (the one your functions are defined in). You can do this by running your command like this:

tasks:
  default:
    cmds:
      - zsh -c "my_custom_function" # <--- replace 'zsh` with your shell

However, this isn't very portable. If you're writing a project that will be used by other users on different machines, then you might want to include the custom function as a script inside your project and invoke it directly:

tasks:
  default:
    cmds:
      - ./scripts/my_custom_script.zsh

Thank you very much, i can use that.

since I use this only for myself - zsh -i -c "my_custom_function" worked.
