Description:

This package contains Rake, 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.
  • The Rake task library can simplify common actions.
  • Rake can be installed as a Ruby GEM
Versions: [0.5.3 (2005-04-12)] [0.4.0 (2004-06-29)] [0.3.1 (2003-11-29)]
