Rake is a simple ruby build program with capabilities similar to make.
|
|
Rake has the following 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.
