@@ -1,9 +1,29 @@ -Sailed right through the 4.4.x series. Now were onto the next with a whole new level of irony ;) -This release features both Rake interoperability and CUSTOM TASKS! Ain't it a woot! Just when it -becomes possible to actually use Reap in place of Rake altogether, you can now use Reap via -Rake as just another set of availble Rake tasks. This baby is blooming! +And just like that *snap* we arrive at version 5.0. Why a major version change? Becuase Reap tasks now have new "formulary". They are defined as true blue YAML types. This means you can even name a Reap task anything you like (although we strongly encourage sticking to the conventional names unless +otherwise neccessary). Here's an example from Facets' own ProjecInfo file: + + rdoc-core: !!rdoc + dir: web/doc/api/core + template: jamis + options: ['--all', '--inline-source'] + include: + - 'lib/facets/core/**/*' + - '[A-Z]*' + + rdoc-more: !!rdoc + dir: web/doc/api/more + template: jamis + options: ['--all', '--inline-source'] + include: + - 'lib/facets/more/**/*' + - '[A-Z]*' + +With this release we have also tightened Rake inter-operability. Simply place + + require 'reap/rake' + +in you Rakefile and all tasks defined in the ProjectInfo file will be available via the rake command. Enjoy, T.
