Gaia/Build/NewBuildSystem

Plan

Milestone 1

Initial landing step.

• Deliverable: Check in a new Makefile target to trigger configure.js modules. The configure.js can generate a proper Makefile and PROFILE_DIR.
• Expected schedule: 4 week
• Breakdowns:

1. Create a configure.js modules to generate a proper profile
2. The configure.js should know whether it will re-run itself or all.mk or not in an incremental build
3. The configure.js will generate DAG for Makefile
4. The configure.js should read build config to re-generate DAG
5. Split webapp-shared into small tasks in order to get rid of .PHONY target and split copy app configuring step & building step

Milestone 2

• Deliverable:
• Expected schedule: 4 week
• Breakdowns:

1. Introduce DAG tree to support multi-process
2. Split all modules into small tasks && app/build.js ( split into configuring & building steps ) (Get rid of .PHONY)
3. Generate a config.status ( build config? ) ( input DAG )
