Target is not bind to automatic variable in Makefile job expanded by macro - makefile

I'm trying to write jobs that contain a lot of similarities as below.
EMACS_VERS := 22.1 23.4 24.5 25.3 26.1
LOCAL_LISPDIRS := $(patsubst %,local/%/site-lisp,$(EMACS_VERS))
$(addsuffix /leaf, $(LOCAL_LISPDIRS)): site-lisp/leaf
mkdir -p $(#D)
cp -rf site-lisp/$(#F) $#
$(MAKE) --no-print-directory -C $(dir $(#D)) .make-repo-$(#F)
$(addsuffix /orglyth, $(LOCAL_LISPDIRS)): site-lisp/orglyth
mkdir -p $(#D)
cp -rf site-lisp/$(#F) $#
$(MAKE) --no-print-directory -C $(dir $(#D)) .make-repo-$(#F)
$(addsuffix /cort, $(LOCAL_LISPDIRS)): site-lisp/cort
mkdir -p $(#D)
cp -rf site-lisp/$(#F) $#
$(MAKE) --no-print-directory -C $(dir $(#D)) .make-repo-$(#F)
However, when those job was expanded by below macro, the target name was not bind to the automatic variable, and an error occurred.
define build_repo
$1: $2
mkdir -p $(#D)
cp -rf site-lisp/$(#F) $#
$(MAKE) --no-print-directory -C $(dir $(#D)) .make-repo-$(#F)
endef
$(eval $(call build_repo,$(addsuffix /leaf,$(LOCAL_LISPDIRS)),site-lisp/leaf))
$(eval $(call build_repo,$(addsuffix /orglyth,$(LOCAL_LISPDIRS)),site-lisp/orglyth))
$(eval $(call build_repo,$(addsuffix /cort,$(LOCAL_LISPDIRS)),site-lisp/cort))
The above code gets the following error. As I think, this happens because the name of the target is not an automatic variable bound.
mkdir -p
usage: mkdir [-pv] [-m mode] directory ...
make: *** [Makefile:72: local/22.1/site-lisp/leaf.el] Error 64
Is there a way to solve this problem?
On the other hand, the following code has been rejected as changes to leaf, orglyth, cort are all generated when change files in only leaf.
REPOS := leaf orglyth cort
REPODIRS := $(addprefix site-lisp/, $(REPOS))
LOCAL_REPOS := $(foreach repo, $(REPOS), $(addsuffix /$(repo), $(LOCAL_LISPDIRS)))
$(LOCAL_REPOS): $(REPODIRS)
mkdir -p $(#D)
cp -rf site-lisp/$(#F) $#
$(MAKE) --no-print-directory -C $(dir $(#D)) .make-repo-$(#F)

Your macro is expanded twice. Double all $ signs to escape the first expansion.
As you have two nested loops (versions and repos) it would be difficult to use pattern rules instead of macros. But you can probably use macros a bit more efficiently:
# $(1): repo
# $(2): version
define build_repo
local/$(2)/site-lisp/$(1): site-lisp/$(1)
mkdir -p $$(#D)
cp -rf site-lisp/$$(#F) $$#
$$(MAKE) --no-print-directory -C $$(dir $$(#D)) .make-repo-$$(#F)
endef
$(foreach r,$(REPOS),$(foreach v,$(EMACS_VERS),$(eval $(call build_repo,$(r),$(v)))))
Or:
# $(1): repo
# $(2): version
define build_repo
local/$(2)/site-lisp/$(1): site-lisp/$(1)
mkdir -p local/$(2)/site-lisp
cp -rf site-lisp/$(1) local/$(2)/site-lisp/$(1)
$(MAKE) --no-print-directory -C local/$(2) .make-repo-$(1)
endef
$(foreach r,$(REPOS),$(foreach v,$(EMACS_VERS),$(eval $(call build_repo,$(r),$(v)))))
The second version does not need any $ escape because everything is correctly and completely expanded at the first expansion. Yes, even $(MAKE) that, most likely in your case, expands the same during the first or the second expansion.
But remember that this is a special case. If you continue using the $(eval...) function do not forget the double expansion...

Thanks #Renaud Pacelet for your good reply!
define build_repo
$1: $2;
mkdir -p $$(#D)
cp -rf site-lisp/$$(#F) $$#
$$(MAKE) --no-print-directory -C $$(dir $$(#D)) .make-repo-$$(#F)
endef
$(call build_repo,$(addsuffix /leaf,$(LOCAL_LISPDIRS)),site-lisp/leaf)
$(call build_repo,$(addsuffix /orglyth,$(LOCAL_LISPDIRS)),site-lisp/orglyth)
$(call build_repo,$(addsuffix /cort,$(LOCAL_LISPDIRS)),site-lisp/cort)
With this code I got what I wanted without error. But is there a smarter another way to not use macros?
[Additional notes]
I looked at the answer of #Renaud Pacalet and reconcidered.
Actually, when repositories are changed, I have to build on all versions, so I can do one loop as follows.
LOCALDIRS := $(addprefix local/, $(EMACS_VERS))
define build_repo
$(addsuffix /site-lisp/$(1), $(LOCALDIRS)): $(LISPDIR)/$(1)
mkdir -p $$(#D)
cp -rf site-lisp/$$(#F) $$#
$$(MAKE) --no-print-directory -C $$(dir $$(#D)) .make-repo-$$(#F)
endef
$(foreach repo, $(REPOS), $(eval $(call build_repo,$(repo))))

with Makefile create folders from specific filenames

I need a Makefile that create for every <file.rst> a <file> folder to then execute
hovercraft on the <file.rst> which need a folder as second argument
$ tree
.
├── a.rst
├── b.rst
└── Makefile
With this Makefile
$ cat Makefile
.PHONY: html
HTML_TARGETS:= $(patsubst %.rst,%.html,$(wildcard *.rst))
html: $(HTML_TARGETS)
%.html: %.rst
#rm -fr $(basename $# .html)
#mkdir -p $(basename $# .html)
#hovercraft -Ns $< $(basename $# .html)
$
It kind of works
.
├── a
│   └── index.html
├── a.rst
├── b
│   └── index.html
├── b.rst
└── Makefile
I fell how baroquish this Makefile is, what could be a better way to write it ?
BTW I fail to add in the Makefile this echo:
#echo output done in $(basename $# .html)/index.html
I get:
output done in a /index.html
output done in b /index.html
^
└─ with an unwanted space
I whould like to print:
output done in a/index.html
output done in b/index.html
If I understand correctly that you want to make a directory "x", then execute hovercraft x.rst x/index.html for every file "x.rst", then this should be a succinct way to do so.
SOURCES := $(wildcard *.rst)
TARGETS := $(SOURCES:.rst=/index.html)
%/index.html: %.rst
mkdir -p $*
hovercraft $< $#
.PHONY: all
all: $(TARGETS)

in Makefile remove folders if a filename with the same basename exist

I need to remove in the following case
.
├── a
│   └── index.html
├── a.rst
├── b
│   └── index.html
├── c
│   └── index.html
└── c.rst
folder a and c not b.
I make it work with this Makefile:
$ cat Makefile
.PHONY: clean
HTML_TARGETS:= $(patsubst %.rst,%.html,$(wildcard *.rst))
clean: $(HTML_TARGETS)
%.html: %.rst
#echo rm $(basename $# .html)
$
$ make
rm a
rm c
$
Is there a better way to write it ? (the patsubst use an unneeded .html sub)
What I mean is why don't you just do something like:
.PHONY: clean
HTML_DIRS := $(patsubst %/,%,$(dir $(wildcard */*.html)))
RST_FILES := $(basename $(wildcard *.rst))
clean:
echo rm -r $(filter $(RST_FILES),$(HTML_DIRS))

GNU Make how to make a static pattern rule for files that are not in the same directory?

I want to use make and create a static pattern rule that has the target in a output directory, and the prerequisite files are in the preceeding directory, and it has to work recursively.
I have a minimal example here:
.
├── anotherdir
│   ├── output
│   │   ├── source3.md
│   │   └── source4.md
│   ├── source3.json
│   └── source4.json
├── output
│   ├── source1.md
│   └── source2.md
├── source1.json
└── source2.json
I want to generate the output directories if they do not exist, and I want to generate *.md files from the *.json using make if they do not exist, or *.json is updated.
So far, I have the following Makefile:
SOURCE_FILES := $(shell find ./ -name "*.json")
OUTPUT_FILES := $(join $(addsuffix output/,$(dir $(SOURCE_FILES))), $(addsuffix .md,$(basename $(notdir $(SOURCE_FILES)))))
.PHONY: all
all: $(OUTPUT_FILES)
$(OUTPUT_FILES): %.md: %.json
mkdir -p $(dir $#)
# Command to create MD file from json file into the output directory here
The actual command to create the MD file from the json file doesn't matter here, because I have a script that I will call that will do this for me. The problem here, is that when I try to even run this at all, I get the following output:
> make all
make: *** No rule to make target 'anotherdir/output/source4.json', needed by 'anotherdir/output/source4.md'. Stop.
Obviously, source4.json is not in anotherdir/output, but rather, it's in the preceeding directory, which is just anotherdir. I don't know how to make it so that the pattern $(OUTPUT_FILES): %.md: %.json will match it properly.
Or is a static pattern rule not good here? I'm not sure what to do to fit my scenario.
EDIT: I tried to do something like this:
$(OUTPUT_FILES): %.md: $(join $(subst output,,$(dir %)), $(addsuffix .json,$(basename $(notdir %))))
and this doesn't work, I still get:
> make all
make: *** No rule to make target 'anotherdir/output/source4.json', needed by 'anotherdir/output/source4.md'. Stop.
Edit 2: to clarify, i start with the following files
.
├── anotherdir
│ ├── source3.json
│ └── source4.json
├── source1.json
└── source2.json
And then when i run make, i want it to generate the output folders like this
.
├── anotherdir
│ ├── output
│ │ ├── source3.md
│ │ └── source4.md
│ ├── source3.json
│ └── source4.json
├── output
│ ├── source1.md
│ └── source2.md
├── source1.json
└── source2.json
I want to use some kind of smart makefile syntax to pick up these files names without me hard coding it in myself. Hence, i looked at the documentation and saw that static pattern rules might be the solution that i want, except that i can't get the right prerequisite pattern down.
I would do it this way:
First, find the source files just as you did (with a small change to prevent the unsightly double-slash):
SOURCE_FILES := $(shell find . -name "*.json")
A pattern file would be nice, if we could use two wildcards at once, but Make can't quite do that. So I recommend using a template:
define template
TDIR := $(dir $(1))output
TARG := $$(TDIR)/$(notdir $(basename $(1))).md
$$(TARG): $(1)
mkdir -p $$#
#echo building $$# from $$<
# Command to create MD file from json file into the output directory here
endef
$(foreach SOURCE,$(SOURCE_FILES),$(eval $(call template,$(SOURCE))))
If this works, all that's left is to construct a list of output files, and a default rule that has all of them as prerequisites:
define template
TDIR := $(dir $(1))output
TARG := $$(TDIR)/$(notdir $(basename $(1))).md
OUTPUT_FILES += $$(TARG)
$$(TARG): $(1)
mkdir -p $$#
#echo building $$# from $$<
# Command to create MD file from json file into the output directory here
endef
all:
$(foreach SOURCE,$(SOURCE_FILES),$(eval $(call template,$(SOURCE))))
all: $(OUTPUT_FILES)
It isn't pretty, but it seems to work.
If it had not been proposed already in another answer I would have suggested foreach-eval-call. For completeness here are different solutions for GNU make (they may work also with other versions of make but I did not check):
Creating the output directories beforehand
If the output directories exist already you can refer to ../%.json in your pattern rule:
SOURCE_FILES := $(shell find . -name "*.json")
OUTPUT_FILES := $(join $(dir $(SOURCE_FILES)),\
$(patsubst %.json,output/%.md,$(notdir $(SOURCE_FILES))))
$(shell mkdir -p $(dir $(OUTPUT_FILES)))
.PHONY: all
all: $(OUTPUT_FILES)
%.md: ../%.json
: json2md $< -o $#
This may look strange but if you read carefully the Pattern match section of the GNU make manual you should quickly understand. The only constraint for this to work is that the output directories exist before make searches pattern rules that match the targets. If one does not exist make will complain that there is no eligible rule to build the target. This is the reason for the:
$(shell mkdir -p $(dir $(OUTPUT_FILES)))
at the beginning of the Makefile. Demonstration:
$ make
: json2md output/../source2.json -o output/source2.md
: json2md output/../source1.json -o output/source1.md
: json2md anotherdir/output/../source4.json -o anotherdir/output/source4.md
: json2md anotherdir/output/../source3.json -o anotherdir/output/source3.md
Using the secondary expansion
Secondary expansion gives you the possibility to use automatic variables in the list of prerequisites. The $$ are needed to escape the first expansion by make.
SOURCE_FILES := $(shell find . -name "*.json")
OUTPUT_FILES := $(join $(dir $(SOURCE_FILES)),\
$(patsubst %.json,output/%.md,$(notdir $(SOURCE_FILES))))
.PHONY: all
all: $(OUTPUT_FILES)
$(sort $(dir $(OUTPUT_FILES))):
mkdir -p $#
.SECONDEXPANSION:
$(OUTPUT_FILES): $$(patsubst %output,%,$$(#D))$$(basename $$(#F)).json | $$(dir $$#)
: json2md $< -o $#
Demonstration:
$ make
mkdir -p output/
mkdir -p anotherdir/output/
: json2md source2.json -o output/source2.md
: json2md source1.json -o output/source1.md
: json2md anotherdir/source4.json -o anotherdir/output/source4.md
: json2md anotherdir/source3.json -o anotherdir/output/source3.md
Note: instead of creating the output directories in the json-to-md rule (which has the drawback of creating them several times), I added them as order-only prerequisites and added a specific rule to create them.
Note: the sort function also removes duplicates.
Using recursive make
Here we invoke make (with always the same Makefile) recursively in each sub-directory (except output, of course). Each invocation handles only the local json files, which makes the paths of prerequisites and targets much simpler.
MF := $(realpath $(lastword $(MAKEFILE_LIST)))
SUB_DIRS := $(filter-out . ./output,$(shell find . -maxdepth 1 -type d))
SOURCE_FILES := $(filter-out $(SUB_DIRS),$(wildcard *.json))
OUTPUT_FILES := $(patsubst %.json,output/%.md,$(SOURCE_FILES))
.PHONY: $(SUB_DIRS) all
all: $(SUB_DIRS) $(OUTPUT_FILES)
$(OUTPUT_FILES): output/%.md: %.json | output
: json2md $< -o $#
output:
mkdir -p $#
$(SUB_DIRS):
$(MAKE) -C $# -f $(MF)
Demonstration:
$ make
make -C anotherdir -f /home/doe/json2md/Makefile
make[1]: Entering directory '/home/doe/json2md/anotherdir'
mkdir -p output
: json2md source4.json -o output/source4.md
: json2md source3.json -o output/source3.md
make[1]: Leaving directory '/home/doe/json2md/anotherdir'
mkdir -p output
: json2md source2.json -o output/source2.md
: json2md source1.json -o output/source1.md

Using GNU Make with subdirectories

I was wondering what different approaches of using Make in a project with subdirectories exist, and what are their advantages/drawbacks, but could never see a good summary or cookbook.
I have seen in my researches mainly the "recursive" and "single makefile" approaches, but are there others ?
I also assume that there is not only one "recursive" or "single makefile" approaches but several, so could somebody sum it up ?
For my particular case, I would like a directory architecture looking like this:
.
├── build
│   ├── *.d
│   ├── *.o
| ├── subdir1
| │ ├── *.d
| │ └── *.o
| └── subdir2
| ├── *.d
| ├── *.o
| └── subdir3
| ├── *.d
| └── *.o
├── include
│   ├── *.h
│   └── *.h
├── Makefile
└── src
├── *.c
├── *.h
├── subdir1
│   ├── *.c
│   └── *.h
└── subdir2
├── *.c
├── *.h
└── subdir3
├── *.c
└── *.h
Which solution should I choose ? Possibly one which would allow source files with the same name ?
Your project setup is really basic, so should be your Makefile:
SRC_DIR := src
BLD_DIR := build
SRC := $(shell find $(SRC_DIR) -name "*.c")
OBJ := $(SRC:$(SRC_DIR)/%.c=$(BLD_DIR)/%.o)
DEP := $(OBJ:.o=.d)
CPPFLAGS := -MMD -MP # enable auto-dependency generation
CFLAGS := -Wall -W -pedantic
.PHONY: all clean
all: $(OBJ)
clean:
$(RM) -r $(BLD_DIR)
.SECONDEXPANSION:
$(BLD_DIR)/%.o: $(SRC_DIR)/%.c | $$(#D)/ # First check that the destination directory exists
$(CC) $(CPPFLAGS) $(CFLAGS) -o $# -c $<
%/:
mkdir -p $* # -p flag necessary for recursive directory creation
ifeq "$(MAKECMDGOALS)" ""
-include $(DEP)
endif
The idea here is to list source files recursively using the find command, to supply make with the appropriate pattern rule to compile in the right place and pass the right preprocessor file to your compiler to enable auto-dependency generation.
Tested with GNU Make 4.1 under Windows 8.1 with the GIT Bash shell and the following directory structure:
.
├── Makefile
└── src
├── test.c
├── test1.c
└── subdir1
└── test.c
After reading Recursive Make Considered Harmful, I figured a quite simple and modular way to achieve this, by having files in all subdirectories that would include each other and be included in the main makefile:
CXX := gcc
SRCDIR := src
OBJDIR := build
# These lines are needed to set immediate evaluation for
# these variables, instead of deferred evaluation which is unsuitable.
SRCS :=
SUBDIRS :=
CFLAGS :=
LDFLAGS :=
include $(SRCDIR)/module.mk
OBJS := $(addprefix $(OBJDIR)/, $(SRCS:.c=.o))
SRCS := $(addprefix $(SRCDIR)/, $(SRCS))
DEPS := $(OBJS:.o=.d)
TMPS := $(OBJS) $(OBJS:.o=.d)
CFLAGS += -MD
debug: CFLAGS += -g -g3 -ggdb
CFLAGS += $(addprefix -I./$(SRCDIR)/, $(SUBDIRS))
LDFLAGS += -lsomelib
debug: LDFLAGS += -g -g3 -ggdb
NAME := yolo
all: $(NAME)
debug: re
-include $(DEPS)
$(OBJDIR)/%.o: $(SRCDIR)/%.c
$(COMPILE.c) $(OUTPUT_OPTION) $<
$(NAME): $(OBJS)
#$(CXX) $(OBJS) -o $(NAME) $(LDFLAGS)
$(OBJS): | $(OBJDIR)
$(OBJDIR):
#mkdir -p $(OBJDIR)
#for dir in $(SUBDIRS); \
do \
mkdir -p $(OBJDIR)/$$dir; \
done
clean:
rm -rf $(TMPS)
fclean: clean
rm -rf $(NAME)
rm -rf $(OBJDIR)
re: fclean all
.PHONY: all clean fclean re
And in every subdirectory, a module.mk file (I could have named it anything, but this seemde cool).
For src:
SRCS := main.c file1.c file2.c
SUBDIRS += subdir1 subdir2
include $(SRCDIR)/subdir1/module.mk
include $(SRCDIR)/subdir2/module.mk
For a level 1 subdirectory:
THIS_DIR_L0 := subdir1
MOD_SRC := file3.c file4.c
SRCS += $(addprefix $(THIS_DIR_L0)/, $(MOD_SRC))
SUBDIRS += $(THIS_DIR_L0)/subdir3
include $(SRCDIR)/$(THIS_DIR_L0)/subdir3/module.mk
And for a level 2 subdir (one deeper):
THIS_DIR_L1 := subdir3
MOD_SRC := file5.c file6.c
SRCS += $(addprefix $(THIS_DIR_L0)/$(THIS_DIR_L1)/, $(MOD_SRC))
And so on...
This is quite simple to set up, I find it very modular and it does not use recursive makefiles. It would not be complicated to make librairies and stuff inside your directory structure either.
Anybody having a better idea please tell me.

How I strip path of source file while writing a compilation rule in makefile?

In short: I want to compile sources from different directories, and put object files into current directory.
For example, I have files:
test.c
../../lib1/boot.c
../../lib2/startup.c
../common/utils.c
(also few files .s (assembly) and .cpp, but I hope this is not important).
All of their object-files I want to be in the current directory:
test.o
boot.o
startup.o
utils.o
And I can't figure out how to write such rule in my makefile.
For example,
%o.: %.c
does not work now because make can't find a rule to build boot.o from ../../lib1/boot.c, it can only find rule to build ../../lib1/boot.o from ../../lib1/boot.c.
I tried to use this:
%o.: %.c
(my compilation line, for example "gcc -c $^ -o $#")
%o.: ../../lib1/%.c
(my compilation line)
%o.: ../../lib2/%.c
(my compilation line)
%o.: ../common/%.c
(my compilation line)
and it works. But obviously this is not generic enough, and in addition, some user came to me today and said that his application has also some ../../some_other_lib/common_things.c, hence my makefile failed. I looked through our project, and found many such cases with a lot of different directories involved. With my approach, I'll have to write a separate rule for each such directory, with identical compilation line. This does not seem good to me.
So my question is: how to make some generic compilation rule that puts (and checks) object files in current directory, while operating with sources in different directories?
Thank you.
The directories can be extracted from the CSRC variable with $(dir ...) and this list can then be used in the vpath directive.
vpath %.c $(sort $(dir $(CSRC)))
vpath %.s $(sort $(dir $(SSRC)))
vpath %.cpp $(sort $(dir $(CPPSRC)))
(I've thrown in the sort function to remove duplicates, but that's not absolutely necessary.)
Now the rules can be kept simple and make will search the source files in the list of directories.
$(COBJ) := $(notdir $(CSRC))
$(SOBJ) := $(notdir $(SSRC))
$(CPPOBJ) := $(notdir $(CPPSRC))
.PHONY: all
all: $(EXECUTABLE)
$(EXECUTABLE): $(COBJ) $(SOBJ) $(CPPOBJ)
....
$(COBJ): %.o: %.c
...
$(SOBJ): %.o: %.s
...
$(CPPOBJ): %.o: %.cpp
...
Try to use makefile function notdir as this:
%.o: %.c
gcc -c $< -o $(notdir $#)
$# must be equal to the full path ex: ../../lib2/startup.o ad notdir will trunk it to: startup.o.
With this rule you will be able to compile all your source in the current directory.
Actually, your example is like that:
.
└── common
├── lib1
│   └── boot.c
├── lib2
│   └── startup.c
├── test
│   ├── Makefile
│   └── test.c
└── utils.c
I think i will be better like that:
.
├── common
│   ├── lib1
│   │   ├── Makefile
│   │   ├── obj
│   │   └── src
│   │   └── boot.c
│   ├── lib2
│   │   ├── Makefile
│   │   ├── obj
│   │   └── src
│   │   └── startup.c
│   ├── Makefile
│   ├── obj
│   ├── src
│   │   └── utils.c
│   └── test
│   ├── Makefile
│   ├── obj
│   └── src
│   └── test.c
└── Makefile
For that you need all your Makefiles to call the subdirs Makefiles.
and the src/obj dirs is a separation between your source and objects.
SRC := utils.c
OBJ := $(SRC:%.c=%.o)
NAME := project
SRC_D := src
OBJ_D := obj
SUBDIRS := lib1/ \
lib2/ \
test/
all: $(NAME) $(SUBDIRS)
#for dir in $(SUBDIRS); \
do \
$(MAKE) -C $$dir; \
done
$(NAME): $(OBJ:%.o=$(OBJ_D)/%.o)
$(OBJ_D)/%.o : $(SRC_D)/%.c
gcc -c $< -o $#
OK, took me some time, but finally I found the solution (using some threads on this site by the way):
# Defining compilation rules in a way that object files will be produced in current directory, and not in the directory of source files:
all: <List of my targets>
define my_c_rule
$(subst .c,.o,$(notdir $(1))): $(1)
$(CC) $(CFLAGS) $(CDEFINES) $$^ -o $$#
endef
$(foreach f, $(CSRC), $(eval $(call my_c_rule, $(f))))
$(CSRC) contains list of source files with their paths.
Just need to take into account that if earlier I had something like this:
.c.o:
$(CC) $(CFLAGS) $(CDEFINES) $^ -o $#
all: <List of my targets>
...now I have to put all sentence above the rules which I described in my_c_rule procedure. If I don't do this, make stops after compiling first source file. This is because old "wildcard" rules like .c.o or %.o: %.c do not replace all as a default target (even being written earlier), but non-wildcard rules like boot.o: ../../lib1/boot.c (result of the above macros) do replace the default target in case they are written earlier.
