I’m looking for some build automation tool for JRuby project. Result of this project should be some library that can do stuff. I need to use some Java libraries but I want to work with Ruby. So that’s why JRuby.
In this stage, I’m looking for build automation tool that can handle dependencies and download them from remote repository.
I could use Maven for this, but I’m interested in other alternatives that could be more fun to work with.
So yeah, if you are looking for something sexier than Mave, SBT is good option.
Other options are:
Gradle – http://www.gradle.org/ – if you want Groovy rather than scala orientation.
Or Gant – http://gant.codehaus.org/ – for some more in the lines of Ant.
Buildr – http://buildr.apache.org/ – Is another interesting project
I also came across this dead project – http://raven.rubyforge.org/ – But I wonder if something new came to tackle the same item, i.e. using Rake , the ruby build tool, to build java as well.
