basil #

A linear build system for Dart projects, designed to be lightweight and extensible.

Features #

  • Easily configurable
  • Highly flexible
  • Fast performance
  • Supports parallel execution
  • Supports platform-specific build types

Details #

Basil parses a YAML file (by default, the project pubspec.yaml file) and looks for a top-level field named basil. Other fields under the basil tag are called build types. Each build type must specify a field named cmds containing a list of shell commands. Build types are executed in descending order, by default. Build types can be also specified manually.

Install #

There are two ways to install basil. It can be installed to a project locally, such that others who clone your source code will fetch basil automatically as part of the developer dependencies. It can also be installed globally so that basil does not need to live in your source code, but instead lives on your system.

For a specific project #

Simply add basil to your developer dependencies for your project: dart pub add --dev basil.

Global #

If you already have Dart installed, simply activate the package globally:

dart pub global activate basil

Configuration #

The configuration for basil lives in the root pubspec.yaml file by default. The format is as follows:

# Main basil tag specifying ordered build tags.
basil:
  # Build type names are arbitrary.
  ex1:
    # (Required) list of shell commands to execute.
    cmds: [ 'cmd1', 'cmd2', ... ]
    # (Optional) toggle the execution of this build tag.
    enabled: true
    # (Optional) execute the shell commands concurrently. Wait for completion before proceeding
    # to the next build tag.
    parallel: false
    # (Optional) list of platforms to execute this build tag on. Platform is determined via
    # [Platform.operatingSystem]. Example: platforms: [ 'linux', 'macos' ].
    platforms: null
  ex2:
    ...
  ex3:
    ...

Usage #

Once configured, you can start a build via: dart run basil:main if you installed it to your project, or just run basil if you installed it globally. This will process all the build steps in descending order.

A specific configuration file can be specified using the --config or -c option. For example: dart run basil:main -c custom.yaml or basil -c custom.yaml.

Build steps can also be specified individually: dart run basil:main [type...] or basil [type...]. For example: dart run basil:main build cleanup or basil build cleanup will execute exclusively the build step and the cleanup step.
