mkmake 0.1.1

Generate project and meta Makefiles with a Python API

mkmake

mkmake is a Python package for generating Makefiles for multiple related C projects from code.

Features

• Generate project and meta Makefiles from Python project definitions.
• Model mixed project types with a shared API (CProject, YYProject, TestProject).
• Discover and wire header dependencies for C projects.
• Inject dependency include paths and library linkage across project boundaries.
• Configure build variants through debug and test generation flags.

Quick Start

from mkmake import make_projects
from mkmake.projects import CProject, TestProject, YYProject

Define projects in a dictionary, then call make_projects(...) with build flags:

projects = {
    "core": CProject("core", output_name="libcore.a"),
    "parser": YYProject("parser", output_name="libparser.a", depends=["core"]),
    "tests": TestProject("tests", test_command="python3 {0} {1}", depends=["core", "parser"]),
}
make_projects(projects, debug=True, test=True)

Full usage example: examples/generic_make.py

Limitations

• package-only API surface
• no CLI in package code
