1	# Just Command Runner
2
3	[GitHub Repository](https://github.com/casey/just)
4
5	`just` is a handy way to save and run project-specific commands. It's a command runner, not a build system, avoiding much of `make`'s complexity.
6
7	## Instructions
8
9	### Prerequisites
10
11	- `just` must be installed: `brew install just`
12	- Commands are stored in a `justfile` (or `Justfile`).
13
14	#### Common Settings (`set ...`)
15
16	You can configure `just` behavior at the top of your `justfile`:
17	- `set shell := ["bash", "-c"]`: Change the default shell.
18	- `set dotenv-load`: Automatically load `.env` files.
19	- `set allow-duplicate-recipes`: Allow overriding recipes.
20	- `set fallback`: Search for `justfile` in parent directories.
21	- `set quiet`: Don't echo commands by default.
22
23	## Example Justfiles
24
25	For complete reference, see these templates:
26	- [Node.js + Docker](examples/node-docker.just)
27	- [Python + Venv](examples/python-venv.just)
28	- [Bun + TypeScript](examples/bun-typescript.just)
29	- [Astral UV + Python](examples/uv-python.just)
30	- [Multi-Module / Advanced](examples/multi-module.just)
31
32	## Workflow
33
34	1. Create a `justfile`:
35	Define recipes at the top level of your project. Always include a `default` recipe that lists available commands:
36	```just
37	default:
38	@just --list
39	```
40	```just
41	# The default recipe (runs when calling `just` with no args)
42	default:
43	just --list
44
45	# A basic recipe
46	test:
47	cargo test
48
49	# A recipe with parameters
50	build target:
51	echo "Building {{target}}..."
52	cc main.c -o {{target}}
53	```
54
55	2. Run Recipes:
56	- Run the default recipe: `just`
57	- Run a specific recipe: `just <recipe>`
58	- Pass arguments to a recipe: `just build my-app`
59	- List all available recipes: `just --list`
60
61	3. Advanced Features:
62	- Dependencies: `test: build` (runs `build` before `test`).
63	- Shebang Recipes: Use other languages like Python or Node inside a recipe.
64	```just
65	python-task:
66	#!/usr/bin/env python3
67	print("Hello from Python!")
68	```
69	- Dotenv: `set dotenv-load` at the top of the file to load `.env`.
70
71	## Examples
72
73	### Example 1: Standard Development Justfile
74
75	User request:
76	```
77	Create a justfile for my Node project to handle lint, test, and dev
78	```
79
80	You would:
81	1. Create a `justfile`:
82	```just
83	default:
84	@just --list
85
86	lint:
87	npm run lint
88
89	test:
90	npm test
91
92	dev:
93	npm run dev
94	```
95	2. Tell the user they can now run `just dev` or `just test`.
96
97	### Example 2: Recipe with Parameters
98
99	User request:
100	```
101	Add a recipe to just to deploy to a specific environment
102	```
103
104	You would:
105	1. Edit the `justfile`:
106	```just
107	deploy env:
108	echo "Deploying to {{env}}..."
109	./scripts/deploy.sh --target {{env}}
110	```
111	2. Inform the user they can run `just deploy production`.
112
113	### Example 3: Listing Recipes
114
115	User request:
116	```
117	What commands are available in this project?
118	```
119
120	You would:
121	1. Run `just --list` to see available recipes and their comments.
