<h1 class="lined-header"><span>Updating Erlang.mk</span></h1>

<p>This chapter describes how to update the <em>erlang.mk</em> file in your repository.</p>
<h2 id="_initial_bootstrap">Initial bootstrap</h2>
<p>The first time you use Erlang.mk, it will bootstrap itself. It always uses the most recent version for this, so you don&apos;t have to update after creating your project.</p>
<h2 id="_updating">Updating</h2>
<p>Later on though, updating becomes a necessity. Erlang.mk developers and contributors relentlessly improve the project and add new features; it would be a waste not to benefit from this.</p>
<p>That&apos;s why updating Erlang.mk is so simple. All you need to do is to call <code>make erlang-mk</code>:</p>

<p>All that&apos;s left to do is to commit the file!</p>
<p>Yep, it&apos;s that easy.</p>
<h2 id="_customizing_the_build">Customizing the build</h2>
<p>Erlang.mk allows you to customize which components are to be included in the <em>erlang.mk</em> file. The <code>WITHOUT</code> variable allows you to remove components from the default Erlang.mk build. The <em>build.config</em> file lets you define exactly what goes in (including your own code!), and in what order.</p>
<p>The <code>WITHOUT</code> file contains the list of components to exclude from the build. For example, to exclude the package index and the EDoc plugin when bootstrapping your application:</p>

</div></div>
<p>The generated Erlang.mk will never include those components when you update it, until you change your mind and use the <code>WITHOUT</code> variable again when you upgrade:</p>

</div></div>
<p>The <em>build.config</em> file is automatically used when you bootstrap Erlang.mk or when you update it with <code>make erlang-mk</code>.</p>
<p>The <em>build.config</em> file contains the list of all files that will be built into the resulting <em>erlang.mk</em> file. You can start from the <a href="https://github.com/ninenines/erlang.mk/blob/master/build.config">most recent version</a> and customize to your needs.</p>
<p>You can also name the file differently or put it in a separate folder by modifying the value for <code>ERLANG_MK_BUILD_CONFIG</code>. You can also tell Erlang.mk to use a different temporary directory by changing the <code>ERLANG_MK_BUILD_DIR</code> variable.</p>
<p>If you want to use a different repository or a specific commit for updating, you may use the variables <code>ERLANG_MK_REPO</code> and <code>ERLANG_MK_COMMIT</code>.</p>
