# GO in your Makefile

## Installation

Latest version\

You must have go 1.19 installed

```console

go install github.com/Hand-of-Doom/gomake@latest

```

## How to use

Create `Gomakefile` in /path/to/folder\

Then `cd /path/to/folder` and run `gomake`

```console

[foo@bar sample]$ pwd

/home/foo/sample

[foo@bar sample]$ ls

Gomakefile

[foo@bar sample]$ cat Gomakefile

sample:

    echo "Hello from bash!"

    out=go {

        fmt.Println("Hello from go!")

    }

    echo "$out"

[foo@bar sample]$ gomake sample

go: creating new go.mod: module gomakegen

go: to add module requirements and sums:

	go mod tidy

./sampletarget

Hello from bash!

Hello from go!

```

## Using golang libraries

```makefile

sample:

    go {

        import "github.com/google/uuid"

        fmt.Println(uuid.NewString())

    }

```

Then run `gomake sample`

## Full bash support

You can use all the features of bash since targets are bash scripts\

e.g. you can use multiline targets

```makefile

sample:

    echo "Hello, Gomake!"

    echo "Next line"

    echo "Next line"

```

## How it works?

It's just Makefile preprocessor\

Gomakefile builds into a Makefile so you keep using make

## Problems

### Is it slow? 

It's definitely slower than make cause gomake builds each go statement every time\

I can work on optimization but for now this is not my primary goal

### Is it Makefile compatible?

No. Gomakefile targets are bash scripts\

It's not compatible with Makefile\

You will need to rewrite your code
