- metalliqaz 6mo agoIt's in the title: "a beautiful" It looks nicer. I use good old GNU Make.
- SoftTalker 6mo agoOr something like Ansible? Which is battle tested, provides idempotency for most things, and has a large library of tasks it knows how to do.
- ks2048 6mo agoI've been writing my own "task runner" which seems to have some of the same features. I'd say some pros: A nice view of that has run (what has failed, etc.) - which otherwise could be drowned-out by stderr and stdout. Timing information for each "task". Can organize nested tasks. Save all in a structured log.
