Move templates outside the source .mk files

2024-11-22T13:47:20+00:00

Templates now no longer use Make variables for substitution
but instead replace strings with their equivalent:

  template_name: Corresponds to n=template_name
  project_name:  Corresponds to $(PROJECT) or in=project_name

This allows defining templates outside of Makefiles. For
example an external plugin could define their templates
in templates/my_template.erl and then have the following
in the included Makefile:

  tpl_my_template = $(file < $(THIS)/templates/my_template.erl)

By default the created file will be in src/template_name.erl.
This can be overriden with the tplp_* variable:

  tplp_my_template = src/model/my_template.erl

Substitution is applied both to the template contents and
to its path.

In addition, attempting to overwrite an existing file when
creating a template will result in failure.

Greatly speed up test speed with -j

2024-11-13T16:23:22+00:00

The tests were waiting for the test group to finish before
they could continue with the next test group. Now "core"
and "all" targets directly depend on individual test cases,
allowing parallel Make to get to the next tests quicker and
removing 1/3rd of the total run time.

  make check -j8 -k  5790,16s user 1207,08s system 627% cpu 18:35,49 total
  make check -j8 -k  6250,13s user 1326,77s system 972% cpu 12:59,16 total

Autopatch: allow configuring REBAR_GIT and REBAR_COMMIT

2018-12-07T18:40:02+00:00

And use this in the tests to fetch Rebar only once and then
clone from the local repository. This should speed up tests
a little.

Add test for plugins that include the word rebar

2018-11-30T08:31:47+00:00

Seems that was fixed a while ago.

Add the target help-plugins to document external plugins

2018-11-29T14:34:27+00:00

It's better than extending help:: because this gets printed
at the end instead of before Erlang.mk's own help.

Remove some non-portable "echo -e" from a couple tests

2018-11-26T18:12:26+00:00

Tweak a few tests so they run on all platforms

2018-11-26T08:13:41+00:00

Don't list test cases manually anymore

2018-05-14T15:01:16+00:00

Fix use of templates from plugins in apps layout

2018-05-14T11:23:12+00:00

Support plugins local to the application

2017-05-15T14:53:11+00:00

If the application's Makefile specify either:
    DEP_PLUGINS = $(PROJECT)
or e.g.:
    DEP_PLUGINS = $(PROJECT)/mk/dist.mk
then load the plugin from the application instead of a dependency.

This helps when you have an application with common Erlang modules and
Erlang.mk plugins: your common application can load Erlang.mk plugins
exactly like other applications depending on the common application.
