2024-11-22Move templates outside the source .mk filesLoïc Hoguin
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.
