Pyke - Make for Python
(WIP, Beta Release) Makelike build automation tool for Python projects with extensive DSL features. Throwout your Makefiles and use Pykefiles!
Features
Users can specify tasks, subtasks, and task rules.
Use regex rules patterns to create targets for tasks.
Significantly less confusing than Makefiles (is that a tab or space…?)
Complete Python DSL with full access to builtins and external dependencies.
[WIP] Run and execute tasks in parallel with each other (threaded multitasking).
Example
import pyke
# create a defualt task, named "build"
@pyke.task("build", default=True)
def build():
print("Building the project...")
# create a task dependency. running `pyke dist`
# will make the "build" task run first!
@pyke.task("dist", deps=["build"])
def dist():
print("Distributing the project...")
pyke.run()
Put that in a Pykefile
and you’re good to go. Then run pyke
in
the same directory and watch the magic happen!
$ pyke dist
Building the project...
Distributing the project...
Installation
Install the pykefile
library with pip
. Requires Python 3.8 or
higher.
python -m pip install pykefile
You can also add it your developement dependencies with poetry
.
python -m poetry add pykefile --dev
Usage
Just like any other Makefile, you’ll need the Pykefile
in your
current directory. (Pykefile.py
also works)
Then use the pyke
command to execute and run specified tasks.
Running pyke
without any commands will call the default task if
there is one. The first argument will call a task by that name.
