redo.js

node.js wrapper for the redo build system. For declaring dependencies in JavaScript .do files.

install

npm install redo

Redo itself is packaged under bin and exported, so

npm install -g redo

makes the redo-* commands available to the system. This is not necessary for the library to work, but it does mean you don't have to type ./node_modules/.bin/redo. Which is nice.

using

See the redo docs for an overview of the build system itself.

default.upper.do

#!/usr/bin/env node
var redo = require('redo');
var fs = require('fs');

redo.ifchange(process.argv[2] + '.lower', function() {
  process.stdout.write(
    fs.readFileSync(process.argv[2] + '.lower', 'utf8').toUpperCase()
  );
});

default.js.do

It's a bit nicer in Livescript:

#!/usr/bin/env lsc
require! [redo, fs, LiveScript]

<- redo.ifchange process.argv.2 + '.ls'

fs.read-file-sync process.argv[2] + '.ls', \utf8
|> LiveScript.compile
|> process.stdout.write
