Makefile, why, really?

soplakanets commented 12 years ago

@superbobry I am not sure what you mean. If you're asking why make and not X - answer is simple, because everybody has it installed. I am not a fan of make neither, but, not sure introducing another build tool is a good idea.

Anyways, I am up for suggestions, have no strong feelings for make :) Let's let maintainer decide.

Well, I'm not very familiar with Erlang environment, but it looks like most of the folks just use rebar for everything; this includes tests (which seem to be the only two long lines in the Makefile you've written).

@superbobry My opinion:

  1. As I said -- it's a matter of personal preference. I personally hate typing rebar get-deps compile if I can shorten it to make.
  2. Unfortunately tests in a current form can not be run with rebar. Check source code.
  3. Most of the projects I saw use rebar+Makefiles, including Webmachine, which is a product of a company behind rebar :)

Hi guys, this TonyGen site is no longer the master for mongodb-erlang, mongodb is. Can you please post there. Thanks, Tony

superbobry commented 12 years ago

Sure, but mongodb's repository has no issues enabled.

Mongo tracks issues at jira.mongodb.org. Select Erlang project.
