Reggae build system

Reggae is a (meta) build system with multiple front (D, Python, Ruby, Javascript, Lua) and backends (make, ninja, tup, custom). This is alpha software, only tested on Linux and likely to have breaking changes made.

Features

• Multiple frontends: write readable and concise build descriptions in D, Python, Ruby, JavaScript or Lua.
• Multiple backends: generates build systems for make, ninja, tup, and a custom binary backend
• Like autotools, no dependency on reggae itself for people who just want to build your software. The --export option generates a - build system that works in the root of your project without having to install reggae on the target system
• Flexible low-level DAG description DSL in each frontend to do anything
• High-level DSL rules for common build system tasks for C, C++ and D projects
• Automatic header/module dependency detection for C, C++ and D
• Automatically runs itself if the build description changes
• Out-of-tree builds - no need to create binaries in the source tree
• User-defined variables like CMake in order to choose features before compile-time
• dub integration for D projects
