genmake 1.1.6

Generate Makefile for C Project of 42 School

genMake

Disclaimer:

This is my first real Python project. I am not a Python developer, and the code is certainly not the cleanest. This project was developed according to my needs, and if you need more features I would be happy to integrate them if possible. I think it may be useful to others so I'll share it but without any guarantee.

Description

This project allows to generate a Makefile compatible with the rules of school 42. It also allows to update the name of the sources in a fully automated way. The MakeFile works on C and CPP.

Usage

genmake -h
usage: genmake [-h] [--version] [--remake]

optional arguments:
  -h, --help  show this help message and exit
  --version   show program's version number and exit
  --remake    Delete and reconstruct Makefile

Makefile

The Makefile will support the libftprintf and minilibx libraries (standard to 42). There is also a DEBUG rule as well as norm. The Makefile will use GCC on MacOS and clang-9 on Linux

Usage of makefile

make
make bonus
make BUILD=debug
make BUILD=valgrind
make re
make clean
make fclean
make libft
make minilibx
make norm

If you use the Debug rule, the following parameters will be added during compilation :

-DDEBUG -ggdb -fsanitize=address -fno-omit-frame-pointer

The valgrind rule is the same as above, but without fsanitize

Installation

To install it just do :

pip3 install genmake

or on 42 iMac :

python3 -m pip install --user genmake

If the command is not available even after installation, please check that $HOME/.local/bin is in the PATH. If it is not the case you can add this to your .zshrc :

export PATH=$HOME/.local/bin:$PATH

or on 42 iMac MacOS :

export PATH=$HOME/Library/Python/3.7/bin:$PATH

Upgrade

To update, this command is enough:

pip3 install genmake -U

or on 42 iMac :

pip3 install --user --upgrade genmake

Known problems :

• The code is not clean
• Many parameters are hard-coded, it would be necessary to create a configuration file.
• You will tell me :D
