TinyMk

======

TinyMk is a small but powerful make system written in Python and based on

`Cake `_ and

`Shake `_. It consists of a single script that's

around 350 lines long. Here's a somewhat complex example of using it:

.. code-block:: python

  from tinymk import * # import TinyMk

  import os, glob

  sources = ['a.c', 'b.c', 'c.c']

  objects = [os.path.splitext(src)[0]+'.o' for src in sources]

  @task()

  def build():

      # invoke 2 other targets

      invoke('build:headers')

      invoke('build:app')

  # create a task for each element in sources inside of the category objects

  # ptask is like GNU make's pattern rules

  # for each element in the sources list, call the function

  @ptask('%.c', '%.o', sources, 'objects')

  def objects(outs, src):

      # outs is a list; since there is only one output, get it

      out = outs[0]

      # object the object file in the source has changed

      run_d(out, dep, 'gcc -c %s -o %s' % (src, out))

  # create a task named 'app' in the category 'build'

  @task('build:')

  def app():

      # if we need to update the output file...

      if need_to_update('app', sources):

          cinvoke('objects')

          # update the output file

          run('gcc %s -o %s' % (' '.join(objects), 'app'))

  # create a task named 'headers' in the category 'build'

  @task('build:')

  def headers():

      # regenerate gen.h if gen.py has changed

      run_d('gen.h', 'gen.py', 'python gen.py > gen.h')

  main()

Even better, TinyMk is licensed under the MIT Expat license, so you can

distribute it with your application without needing to worry about licensing

troubles.
