Taskr is a simple command-line task runner written in C++. It allows you to define tasks in a taskr.toml file and execute them with ease. It also supports loading environment variables from a .env file.

Inspired by just.

• Define tasks in a TOML file with commands and dependencies.
• Load environment variables from a .env file.
• List available tasks or show help for usage.

• Inline comments in taskr.toml and .env files are not yet supported.

• C++20 compatible compiler
• CMake 3.15 or higher
• Make (or any build system supported by CMake)

1. Clone the repository:

git clone <repository-url>

2. Create a build directory and run CMake:

cd cli-cpp mkdir build cd build cmake ..

3. Build the project:

make

4. The compiled binary will be located in the bin directory.

1. Define tasks in taskr.toml:

[echo] command = "echo \"Hello World!!\"" [build] command = "make -C build" description = "build the project" [install] command = "sudo ln -f bin/taskr /usr/bin/taskr" dependencies = ["echo", "build"] description = "link the taskr binary to /usr/bin/taskr"

2. Run a task:

./bin/taskr run <task-name>

3. List available tasks:

./bin/taskr -l

4. Show help:

./bin/taskr -h
