AutoBuild

AutoBuild is a build system with simple syntax, written in Python. Unlike Make with its .PHONY systems. AutoBuild handles all of that.

Just define your recipes and add the logic to them and now you can run them.

Autobuild files are written in the .abuild format. It was written with APIs in mind, so Tokenize, Parse, Executor()!

A Simple Code Example

Heres a code example for AutoBuild:

.abuild:

# AutoBuild Test, .abuild file.

# Get OS Variables:
get OS
get CC

let CFLAGS = -Wall -O2 -g
let PROGRAM = Test

# OS detection
if OS==Windows_NT then
  let executable = .exe
  let RM = del /f
elif OS==linux then
  let executable =
  let RM = rm -rf
else then
  let executable =
  let RM = rm -rf
done

# Recipe declarations
recipe clean
recipe compile
recipe link
recipe build
recipe run
recipe repeat

# Clean up object files
clean:
  shell (RM) (PROGRAM)(executable) *.o

# Compile each file individually using for in
compile:
  for file in (FILES) do
    (CC) (CFLAGS) -c (file).c -o (file).o
  done

# Link all objects into final binary
link: compile
  (CC) -o (PROGRAM)(executable) main.o utils.o parser.o lexer.o

# Full build: clean first then link
build: clean link
  shell echo Build complete: (PROGRAM)(executable)

# Run the program after building
run: build
  shell (PROGRAM)(executable)

# Repeat a command N times using for till
repeat:
  for till(3) do
    shell echo AutoBuild is working!
  done

Now to use the compile recipe: autobuild compile and yes, it is Windows_NT for windows systems.
