Run grunt task with target/argument in VSCode - gruntjs

Question

I have VSCode version 1.18.1, and this in my Gruntfile.js
grunt.registerTask('release', 'Release process', function(target) {
...
}
The target is there so that I can run grunt release:one or grunt release:two. However, I can't figure out how to make VSCode run the task with the one|two target.
This is tasks.json file VSCode created with Grunt task auto detected.
{
// See https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=733558
// for the documentation about the tasks.json format
"version": "2.0.0",
"tasks": [
{
"type": "grunt",
"task": "release",
"problemMatcher": [],
"label": "Release Process",
"group": {
"kind": "build",
"isDefault": true
}
}
]
}
If I put release:one to the task attribute of the tasks.json file, VSCode will complain with something like
Error: The grunt task detection didn't contribute a task for the following configuration:
Anyone has done something similar to this? Can you please guide me on how to do it?
Thank you!

The way I solved this issue myself was by creating a Task of type shell instead, and putting in the full command. For example, you can do following:
{
"version": "2.0.0",
"tasks": [
{
"type": "shell",
"label": "Release one",
"command": "grunt release:one",
"problemMatcher": [],
}, {
"type": "shell",
"label": "Release two",
"command": "grunt release:two",
"problemMatcher": [],
}
]
}
