I for one find erlang.mk abhorrent as well. I usually write my own makefiles (~ less than 20 lines) to utilize eunit, edoc and rebar3.

- dozzie 9y agoMy own makefiles are less than 20 lines, too, but they use erlang.mk instead of rebar3. You don't get to claim simplicity if you use rebar.
- maze-le 9y ago>> You don't get to claim simplicity if you use rebar. Yea, thats true. But good to see that I am not the only one who creates simplified makefiles to utilize other build tools. My critique on erlang.mk is, that its far simpler to remember the 10-20ish commands of the rebar toolchain than thousands (or hundreds, but that it what it feels like) of erlang.mk options for every erlang tool that has ever been invented.
- dozzie 9y agoThe reverse is also true: it's far simpler to remember the 10-20ish options of the erlang.mk plugins you use than hundreds options of various rebar plugins. There is no significant difference between the two.
