assetman

Haxe library used to generate ninja file.

The goal is to scan the directories, and using the rules, generate a ninja.build

Rules

You can create rules, that will be reused later

    rule('convert2').command("cp $in $out");
    rule('convert').command("cp $in $out");
    rule('atlas').command("cat $in > $name");

$in and $out are default from ninja, but here, $name is a variable that will be set later when rule is used

Patterns

Pattern are use to apply rule to file sets

    var pattern = '**/*.png';
    // build [email protected]: convert2 ../src/foo.psd
    single(pattern).to("[email protected]").usingRule('convert2');
    // build foo.png: convert ../src/foo.psd
    single(pattern).toExt('.png').usingRule('convert');
    var atlasName = 'atlas';
    // build atlas.png atlas.csv: atlas foo.png [email protected]
    //     name = atlas
    bundle('images/*.png')
        .fromBuild(true)
        .to([atlasName + '.png', atlasName + '.csv'])
        .assign('name', atlasName)
        .usingRule('atlas');
