py3make
Bring basic Makefile support to any system with Python.
Simply install with pip install py3make then execute py3make in a directory containing a Makefile.
py3make works on any platform (Linux, Windows, Mac, FreeBSD, Solaris/SunOS).
py3make does not require any library to run, just a vanilla Python interpreter will do.
The goal is not to reproduce a whole implementation of GNU make, but only a very fast and succinct commands runner. This is often used to ease running tests and deployments locally, before uploading to a continuous integration/continuous deployment system such as GitHub Workflows.
Do not be fooled by the lack of updates: this module is very stable and is very frequently (daily) used in most of my Python projects.
This repository is a “fork” by the original author to regain full editing permissions stolen by a co-author, to update this package with full freedom.

Usage
Simply install then execute py3make -p to list commands and py3make <command> to use a command, in a directory containing a Makefile.
Known Issues
For compatibility, ensure:
Every alias is preceded by @[+]make (eg: @make alias)
A maximum of one @make alias or command per line
Sample makefile compatible with py3make:
PY=python -m py_compile
.PHONY:
all
test
install
compile
all:
@+make test
@make install
