I have a Makefile that looks like this:
RENDER_HTML=jupyter nbconvert --execute --to html
MATE40001_TARGETS=$(wildcard MATE40001/notes/*.ipynb)
.phony: all
all: MATE40001
.phony: variables
variables:
@echo MATE40001_TARGETS:
@echo ${MATE40001_TARGETS} | sed 's/ /\n/' | sed 's/MATE/\tMATE/'
.phony: MATE40001
MATE40001: ${MATE40001_TARGETS}
mkdir -p $@/html/
${RENDER_HTML} $^
mv $@/notes/*.html $@/html/
.phony: clean
clean:
rm -rf */html/ *~ */notes/*.html
When I run:
make
make clean
make
make MATE40001
I get the following output:
...
<normal output>
...
rm -rf */html/ *~ */notes/*.html
make: Nothing to be done for 'all'.
make: 'MATE40001' is up to date.
As far as I understand, make is looking for the file MATE40001 which exists as a folder and then stops because there are no updated files. However I do not want this to happen, and I thought that adding .phony: MATE40001 would stop this problem.
What do I need to add/change to fix this issue?
