add documentation for running make on Windows #333
Comments
@chrisjkuch Hi Chris! I'm sinking my teeth into the v2 on Windows. I'm wondering if you have any tips for this? I'm wondering if supporting docker containers would be the way to go/best practice or there are any other "best practices" or recommended ways of doing this? It seems like in the R world, there is some support for recommending docker (see this R course here) |
@mbkranz I was actually just working on some additional documentation for Docker is one way to do it, but here are some others worth considering:
Curious if any of those help and work well/easily for you. |
Thanks for the great suggestions @pjbull . Let me know what you think about the below --

Yeah, it does not seem like |
I just saw that there's a package for Make on conda-forge, and it seems to include Windows builds. Has any tried this? https://anaconda.org/conda-forge/make/ Seems to maybe be MinGW's Make? https://github.com/conda-forge/make-feedstock/blob/0236e5e0f90183076c2e867a104fb7843e6bce9a/recipe/meta.yaml#L22C20-L22C27 |
I just tested this and it works, but with one slightly annoying caveat. Let's say I use conda to manage my virtual environments. Once I activate my project environment, I have to reinstall
|
It'll probably take some thought here to figure out a good workflow to recommend for conda+make. I think it's plausible that we might be able to recommend a workflow using a global application installer like pixi or condax. We're in a bit of a transitionary period though where pixi is still building out functionality and popularity, and condax is a little unclear its long-term maintenance. |
