... is a file watcher which reruns your make
targets when their source files change.
Ensure to have Node.js installed.
npm install -g awake
awake
will search for a Makefile
in your current working directory and read its targets from it.
You can specify an alternative directory to look up using the --directory
option:
# Uses ./ as cwd
awake
# Uses ../example as cwd
awake --directory ../example
You're able to whitelist (--include
) and blacklist (--exclude
) targets:
# Only run dst.txt and foo.html (and not hello.png)
awake --include dst.txt,foo.html
# Allow every taget except hello.png
awake --exclude hello.png
awake
uses make's --print-data-base
option to get a "compiled" version of the makefile which lists all targets and the files on which they depend.
By default awake
will run make -pn
in your cwd but you can also read the output from a file:
make -pn > make-pn.txt
awake --make-database make-pn.txt
