Rake is a Ruby make-like utility using standard Ruby syntax for the
|
||
|
|
build specification file.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
It has the follwing features:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- Rakefiles (rake's version of Makefiles) are completely defined in standard
|
||
|
|
Ruby syntax. No XML files to edit. No quirky Makefile syntax to worry about
|
||
|
|
(is that a tab or a space?)
|
||
|
|
- Users can specify tasks with prerequisites.
|
||
|
|
- Rake supports rule patterns to sythesize implicit tasks.
|
||
|
|
- Rake is lightweight. It can be distributed with other projects as a single
|
||
|
|
file. Projects that depend upon rake do not require that rake be installed on
|
||
|
|
target systems.
