A new useful tool has emerged in the software development world — mbake, a formatter and linter for Makefiles. This open-source project, written in Python, is designed to automate and improve the quality of working with build files.
What is mbake?
Mbake is a comprehensive solution for working with Makefiles — files used to automate the compilation and build process of programs. The main task of the tool is to ensure consistent formatting and identify potential problems in the Makefile structure.
Key Features
The mbake project offers developers the following functions:
- Code formatting: automatic formatting of Makefiles to a unified style
- Linting: checking compliance with best practices and identifying potential errors
- Workflow integration: ability to use in CI/CD pipelines
- Cross-platform: works on various operating systems
Benefits of Use
Using mbake in development projects brings several significant advantages. The tool helps maintain code cleanliness and readability, which is especially important in team development. Automatic formatting eliminates disputes about code style, while the linting function helps prevent typical errors at an early stage.
Installation and Usage
Thanks to mbake being written in Python, its installation is as simple as possible. Developers can integrate the tool into their projects via pip or use it as part of automated build processes.
