Source Press

source_press allows you to combine multiple source files into a single file.

It works on any language as long as .press.yml is configured correctly.

Installation

$ gem install source_press

Run with

$ srcpress

How To

1. cd to the directory containing your source files
2. Create a .press.yml config file, use srcpress gen-config to generate a template file
3. Run source_press from the command-line with srcpress
4. That's it, other options and language-specific settings are described in the template .press.yml file

Configuring Source Press

In order for source_press to work you'll need to provide a few details in a .press.yml file; the only required setting being a list of files or directories to compile.
