Flexible Embedded Build System

Febusy is a library which, through a monadic API, allows one to build a dependency graph between effectful computations while keeping track of their products, a.k.a. “build artifacts.”

For now, one can run the builds sequentially with the Febusy.Edsl.Make_unix module but the build-artifacts are still properly kept track of between runs with “state” files.

Build

This builds everything:

ocaml please.ml configure
jbuilder build @install
jbuilder build _build/default/src/test/main.exe

See also tools/ci-build.sh.

Usage

See the module Febusy.Edsl to construct a direct acyclic graph of build artifacts and then the function Febusy.Edsl.Make_unix.run to “run” the incremental build (cf. also edsl.mli).

See src/test/examples.ml for examples, especially:

• let tiny_example () = ...: a very simple A->B->C dependency DAG.

• let build_website ~output = ...: the build of the http://smondet.gitlab.io/febusy/ website.

Works with utop:

jbuilder utop src/lib/
#use "src/test/examples.ml";;
tiny_example;; (* <- checkout the type *)
let ret = Febusy.Edsl.Make_unix.run ~state_file:"/tmp/utop-test.state" tiny_example;;
