Kame

What is Kame?

Kame is a makefile-like tool written in Ruby.

Why Kame?

Kamefile (as supposed to Makefile) is written in Ruby and therefore more friendly to Ruby programmers compared to its counterpart. No to mention the awesome libraries that are made available to make your life easier.

What stage is it on?

Very early stage. Kame still needs:
- documentation
- tests
- multi-thread support (structure already built)
- a friendly installation process
- get rid of the TODO tags left

Installation

Kame has no installation helper at this moment, but as it does not require any dependency (other than Ruby itself) the setup is fairly straight forward:

clone this repo.
in your shell (or shell profile files), set the alias

alias kame = ruby -I /path/to/the/repo/lib /path/to/the/repo/lib/kame.rb

and that's it! Try kame --help and see if it works.

`Kamefile` Usage

There are some usage examples in examples/. The documentation will come later if Kame is proven to be useful.
