makefiles

learning about makefiles using go

Sort of stolen from http://mrbook.org/blog/tutorials/make/

In this repo:

there are two makefiles in this repository

non-docker

the default makefile (./makefile) will be used if no -f flag is given to make.

decent for local development but depend on the version of go the user is using

docker-ish

the docker.makefile leverages docker to do all of the heavy lifting.

if you don't want to care what version of go, dep, etc are installed on the machine of the make-er you can use docker for things like this super easily.

todo

There are ways to share some commands (clean and vendor_clean are prime candidates) and variables but I haven't made an effort towards that yet.
