# Get Started

`MakIm` or just `makim` is based on `make` and focus on improve the way to
define targets and dependencies. Instead of using the `Makefile` format, it uses
`yaml` format.

The idea of this project is to offer a way to define targets and dependencies
with some control options, like conditionals `if`.

It allows a very easy way to define texts for documentation and extra parameters
for each target.

## Features

- Help text as first-class in the `.makim.yaml` specification. It can be used by
  targets and arguments.
- Targets have an option for arguments.
- Targets have an option for dependencies.
- Dependencies can call a target with specific arguments.
- Dependencies can have a conditional control flow (`if`).
- Allow the creation of groups, so the targets can be organized by topics.
- Targets and groups have an option for user defined variables and/or
  environment variables.
- Access arguments, variables or environment variables via template (using
  Jinja2).
- Option for using dot environment files using `env-file` key.

## How to use it

First you need to place the config file `.makim.yaml` in the root of your
project. This is an example of a configuration file:

```yaml
version: 1.0.0
groups:
  default:
    env-file: .env
    targets:
      clean:
        help: Use this target to clean up temporary files
        args:
          all:
            type: bool
            action: store_true
            help: Remove all files that are tracked by git
        run: |
          echo "remove file X"
      build:
        help: Build the program
        args:
          clean:
            type: bool
            action: store_true
            help: if not set, the clean dependency will not be triggered.
        dependencies:
          - target: clean
            if: {% raw %}{{ args.clean == true }}{% endraw %}
        run: |
          echo "build file x"
          echo "build file y"
          echo "build file z"
```

Some examples of how to use it:

- run the `build` target: `makim build`

- run the `clean` target: `makim clean`

- run the `build` target with the `clean` flag: `makim build --clean`

The help menu for the `.makim.yaml` file would looks like this:

```
$ makim --help
usage: MakIm [--help] [--version] [--config-file MAKIM_FILE] [target]

MakIm is a tool that helps you to organize and simplify your helper commands.

positional arguments:
  target
    Specify the target command to be performed. Options are:

    default:
    --------
      default.clean => Use this target to clean up temporary files
        ARGS:
          --all: (bool) Remove all files that are tracked by git
      default.build => Build the program
        ARGS:
          --clean: (bool) if not set, the clean dependency will not be triggered.

options:
  --help, -h
    Show the help menu
  --version
    Show the version of the installed MakIm tool.
  --config-file MAKIM_FILE
    Specify a custom location for the config file.

If you have any problem, open an issue at: https://github.com/osl-incubator/makim
```

As you can see, the help menu automatically adds information defined by all the
`help` key, inside the `.makim.yaml` file.
