Unable to understand zsh error while executing rake command

Question

When I execute %rake college:create[demo], I get the following error,

zsh: no matches found: college:create[demo]

Anybody has a solution for this?

when I execute rake -T, this is what I get when as one of the lines of the output:

rake college:create[config_name]            # create a college profile

So, it is a valid command, but still zsh shows the error.

Answer 1

Try with:

rake college:create\[demo\]

Answer 2

You can also use noglob

noglob rake college:create[demo]

or just alias it in your .zshrc

alias rake='noglob rake'
