Wild

Yet another buildsystem, but in D!

JSON build file

• variables - Contains variable that can be used everywhere else, including in other variables and in their name.
• sources - Array of all the source folder which Wild will scan.
• processors - The file processers which converts one file to another.
• phonies - Builds this every build, useful for scripts that generate code, this will also trigger a recompilation for everything above in the hierarchy.
• missing - Will run this target only if the file doesn't exist, will only run the command once if there are multiple outputs for this. One object for each output.
• rules - These rules define how files are processed, via a processor.
• targets - When you run wild without any arguments these files will be compiled.

Technical notes

If the first line in any build file starts with "#!" (aka a shebang), it will ignore the whole line. This allows the build file to be a executable script file on *nix systems

Object file will have the same timestamp as the source file. If they differ, it will recompile that file and everything above it in the hierarchy.
