cf: Run a script whose code is included in the app, but runs independently.

$ cf run-task ${app_name} "${script_command}" --name ${task_name}

try on your machine

This command is used in the context of Cloud Foundry (cf), which is a platform-as-a-service (PaaS) used for deploying and managing applications.

The command cf run-task ${app_name} "${script_command}" --name ${task_name} is used to run a one-off task on a specific application.

Here's a breakdown of the command:

${app_name}: It is a placeholder for the name of the application on which you want to run the task. Replace it with the actual name of the application.
"${script_command}": It is a placeholder for the script or command that you want to run as the task. Replace it with the actual script or command enclosed in double-quotes. Example: "python my_script.py"
--name ${task_name}: It is an optional flag to provide a name for the task. Replace ${task_name} with the desired name for your task. If not provided, Cloud Foundry will generate a random name.

By running this command, Cloud Foundry will execute the specified script or command in a separate container, separate from the application's main instances. The task will run independently and provide its output and status.
