Rhiz

A deliberately minimal task runner.

This is an in-progress-pre-alpha project.

Rhiz executes tasks defined in a "Rhizfile", containing task descriptions with a Lisp like syntax.

```scheme (task "hello" (log "Rhiz says hello"))

;; Comments start with a semicolon (task "fizzbuzz" "Tasks can have an optional description" (exec fizzbuzz.exe))

(task "clean" (delete "./output")) ```

Commands

• log: Print a message.
• exec: Run an external command.
• empty-dir: Create an empty directory, or delete an existing directory's contents.
• delete: Delete a file (if it exists).
• copy: Copy a file; wont' overwrite an existing file.
• rec-copy: Recursively copy one directory's contents into another.
• par: Perform a set of commands in parallel.

TODO (Code)

• Set up CI?
• Migrate to GitHub?

TODO (Documentation)

• Overview (motivation, high-level operation)
• Reference information on each function (e.g. "do copy and rec-copy follow symlinks")
• Example Rhizfile(s) (with equivalent script/makefile?)
