- = Rake 0.7.3 Released
- Rake version 0.7.3 is a minor release that includes some refactoring to better
- support custom Rake applications.
- == Changes
- === New Features in Version 0.7.3
- * Added the +init+ and +top_level+ methods to make the creation of custom Rake applications a bit easier. E.g.
- gem 'rake', ">= 0.7.3"
- require 'rake'
- Rake.application.init('myrake')
- task :default do
- something_interesting
- end
- Rake.application.top_level
- == What is Rake
- Rake is a build tool similar to the make program in many ways. But instead of
- cryptic make recipes, Rake uses standard Ruby code to declare tasks and
- dependencies. You have the full power of a modern scripting language built
- right into your build tool.
- == Availability
- The easiest way to get and install rake is via RubyGems ...
- gem install rake (you may need root/admin privileges)
- Otherwise, you can get it from the more traditional places:
- Home Page:: http://rake.rubyforge.org/
- Download:: http://rubyforge.org/project/showfiles.php?group_id=50
- == Thanks
- As usual, it was input from users that drove a alot of these changes. The
- following people either contributed patches, made suggestions or made
- otherwise helpful comments. Thanks to ...
