digitalmars.D.announce - Bootstrap D template
- Seb (28/28) Jan 29 2018 Have you ever wanted to use D in a project where not everyone had
- Dukc (2/5) Jan 29 2018 You're truly becoming the bearer of good news...
- Mengu (4/8) Jan 30 2018 clojure's lein support starter templates. it'd be great if dub
- Seb (5/14) Jan 30 2018 Yep it would be nice and it's planned to support `-t` for dub
- Tony (2/4) Feb 01 2018 What does "|" do in a makefile?
- Mike Wey (6/14) Feb 01 2018 The target depends on `bin` but don't rebuild the target if `bin` is

Have you ever wanted to use D in a project where not everyone had D installed or maybe you wanted to fix the compiler to a specific version? I typically use a simple Makefile in such cases and download my preferred DMD and LDC version. As others who I have shown this have found this useful, I thought it might be helpful to other people (even so it's pretty straight-forward). The cool part about this is that you don't have to worry about anything. People can just type `make` and everything works magically. It's essentially a poor man's version of virtualenv for use cases where people are too lazy to use the install script or auto-env/dir-env can't be used either. I added a few other common "boilerplate" things (CI integration, CodeCov, Documentation build, linting, ...) to this template: https://github.com/wilzbach/d-bootstrap Happy bootstrapping! Why not Docker? --------------- Docker is typically used to allow a consistent work environment, but in my use cases Docker isn't available. If you want to use Docker, check out the [D docker images](https://hub.docker.com/r/dlanguage/dmd/). Additional bonus ---------------- Want to use D in a Web IDE? Use [Cloud9](https://aws.amazon.com/cloud9), clone this repo and run `make` - it will work out of the box.

Couldn't seem to get a search to work. I was hoping the "|" would explain the behavior that I don't understand, but I don't think it does. The instructions say to just type "make". My understanding is that without a specified target, the topmost target in the Makefile is used. In this case it is "bin", which has no dependencies, and one action - mkdir. I would think that the Makefile would stop after making that directory as no other actions are given and no dependencies were specified. But it doesn't.

Is something not working when you just type `make`? Or are you just trying to understand how things work? In the latter case: you don't need to use make, to build your files, I just use it for small projects because it's super easy. Anyhow there are other ways you could use this without needing to dive into make: - as a wrapper - call your actions from a new Makefile target and simply depend on the compiler (that's how I use dub in such projects) - execute `make` as part of your build script. It will fetch the compiler if non-existent and be a no-op otherwise. What are you planning to do?https://www.gnu.org/software/make/manual/html_node/Prerequisite-Types.html#Prerequisite-TypesThanks!
