host configuration set with ->set() not defined in task()->local()

[leevigraham]

Describe the bug

Given the following host / task:

host('localhost')
    ->set('stage', 'dev');

task('setup', function () {
   writeln(get('stage'));
})->local();

When I run vendor/bin/dep setup dev the output is:

 Configuration parameter `stage` does not exist.

I expected that any configuration value set on the host will be available.

I think this may be similar to #2133

Environment

• Deployer version: 6.8.0
• PHP version: 7.4
• Deployment target(s) OS: OSX Cantalina (Local dev machine)

No stage on local() tasks as stage config defined on other host.

[leevigraham]

I think what you're saying is that running a local task ignores host passed as a parameter in the vendor/bin/dep setup dev?

[antonmedv]

host('localhost1');
host('localhost2');

task('setup', function () {
   // What host?
})->local();

I'm saying what there is no host selected at this task as it runs on local. And stage config is related to a host ¯_(ツ)_/¯
Because of this, I refactored everything in v7, but is still need to know what are you running and there (host?).

To further confirm…

vendor/bin/dep someTask command still requires a host / stage argument even if you're running a single local task because there's no way to know if any of the tasks that will be called require a host.

[leevigraham]

I was expecting that even tho the setup task was flagged as local given I passed a host / stage argument the values set on that host / stage would be available in the task.

Sfage is confusing concept. So it already deleted in v7. If you selected one host. You may assume what local tasks also will get it config. One solution is to define global config what will return correct config for local task.
