Dai is simple imperative build system for C projects written in Go.
Dai is:
- Imperative - it demands certain directory structure for the sake of simplicity
- C only - other languages are not supported. Cross-compilation is supported.
- Linux only - you are developer, right?
Dai is similar to go tool in the sense that it inposes certain directory structure, for several reasons:
- Good practice is not an option - ti is mandatory ("There is only one way to do it")
- Keep the tool simple
Dai thus demands that all:
- Source files are kept in
srcdirectory - Header files are kept in
incdirectory - Libraries are kept in the
libdirectory
If this is respected then all is needed is to run dai and it will will run with default configuration in the current directory.
Other wise you can tell point it to your project directory:
dai <path_to_project>Dai takes a config from the special file called dai.toml placed in the root of your project directory.
Here is the example of dai.toml:
### Target
target = "hello"
### Toolchain
[toolchain]
prefix = ""
# Compiler
compiler = "gcc"
cflags = [""]
# Linker
linker = "ld"
ldflags = [""]Dai is engineered by @drasko
