----
- allow setting and exporting environment variables
. export a as "HELLO_BAR"
. export a
. export HELLO_BAR = a
. export CC_FLAGS = "-g"
- raw strings with ''
- multi line strings (not in recipe interpolations)
- indentation or slash for line continuation in plain recipes
- allow calling recipes in a justfile in a different directory:
. just ../foo # ../justfile:foo
. just xyz/foo # xyz/justfile:foo
. just xyz/ # xyz/justfile:DEFAULT
. path prefix is starting dir, so just ../foo can run ../../justfile:foo
. how does this interact with a=b/hello?
- change name back to 'just', suggest j as alias
- readme:
. start with an example justfile
. make it clear it's beta, mention that, as a command runner
there is probably a higher than normal chance of disaster
. installation instructions
. long guide
. talk about all command line flags
. vim and emacs syntax hilighting (use makefile syntax hilighting for now)
. `` strips a single newline
. habit of using clever commands and writing little scripts
. alias .j='just --justfile ~/.justfile --working-directory ~'
. very low friction to write a script (no new file, chmod, add to rcs)
. note that shell is invoked with -u
. users can email me for help
. make list of contributors, include travis
. ask users to contribute their justfiles as tests
. please open an issue for feature requests
- big example justfile
. justfile.example
. lots of comments
. parse them
. update tarball dep
. check version string
. clean
. update logs (repetitive git flow)
. quine
- rewrite grammar.txt
- try to get some users
. travis
. recurse center
. facebook friends
. irc
. r/rust
