Using Make to manage analysis workflows and build software

Using Make to manage analysis workflows and build software

Make is a command line tool that can help to automate building software and executing analysis pipelines.

We have a presentation/demo prepared on the use of make to automate various tasks:

  • data analysis workflows
  • paper/presentation preparation
  • building and installing software

The tutorial and template code are available on github.  The HTML of the tutorial is also available here. You can clone the repository with a git clone, which can be done from the Linux/Mac command line as:

git clone https://github.com/berkeley-scf/make-thw-2015
