Automatic make watch, in 20 lines of POSIX shell.
- A POSIX shell and utilities
- GNU make (or a make that behaves in the same way when passed
-p) - fswatch
makemake is a single shell script, so just drop it somewhere in your
$PATH and make it executable:
$ curl -sSLO https://raw.githubusercontent.com/sersorrel/makemake/master/makemake
$ mv makemake ~/.local/bin/
$ chmod +x ~/.local/bin/makemakeRun makemake from the directory containing your makefile, passing the name of a target as the argument:
$ makemake allmakemake will automatically watch all files that the target depends on, and rerun make every time one of them changes.
Surely many.
Patches welcome!
