Clerk

The build system for Catala built on top of ninja.

Usage

Use clerk --help if you have installed it to get more information about the command line options available. To get the development version of the help, run make help_clerk after make build. The clerk binary corresponds to the Catala build system, responsible for testing among other things.

Under the hood

To perform tests, Clerk will first generate a build.ninja file with required rules and build statements retrieved from the given input path(s), before executing the command ninja test.

The handling of the ninja structure is done with the module Ninja_utils.
