Build tool similar to Makefile.

Installation:

Clone project:

git clone "https://github.com/MarusDod/MakeJson" cd MakeJson

Install Stack:

curl -sSL https://get.haskellstack.org/ | sh or wget -qO- https://get.haskellstack.org/ | sh

Install executable to path:

stack install

If you do not have ghc (haskell compiler) or don't have a lot of the libs installed this will take a while

Guide:

If you're used to Makefile, this works quite the same

You need to create a file named "config.json" on your current directory and write the targets needed to compile your project. There are three types of statements: definitions, rule declarations and phonies

example:

    {
        "declarations" : {
            "$(CC)" : "gcc",
            "$(files)" : ["main.c"],
            "$(includes)" : "header.h",
            "$(target)" : "exe.out"
        },
        "rules" : {
            "$(target)" : {
                "deps" : ["$(files)","$(includes)"],
                "commands" : [
                    ["$(CC)","-o","$(target)","$(files)"]
                ]
            }
        },
        "phonies" : {
            "clean" : {
                "commands" : [
                    ["rm -f",$(target)]
                ]
            }
        }
    }

is the equivalent of:

CC=gcc
target=exe.out
files=main.c
includes=include.h

$(target):$(files) $(includes)
    $(cc) -o $(target) $(files)

.phony:clean

clean:
    rm -f $(target)

To run:

MakeJson-exe or if you define assign $(all) to a variable MakeJson-exe

To uninstall:

cd $PATH/MakeJson stack uninstall rm -rf .
