[![Build and Test](https://github.com/google/kati/workflows/Build%20and%20Test/badge.svg)](https://github.com/google/kati/actions)

kati is an experimental GNU make clone.
The main goal of this tool is to speed-up incremental build of Android.

Currently, kati does not offer a faster build by itself. It instead converts
your Makefile to a ninja file.

How to use for Android
----------------------

For Android-N+, ckati and ninja is used automatically. There is a prebuilt
checked in under prebuilts/build-tools that is used.

All Android's build commands (m, mmm, mmma, etc.) should just work.

Development
-----------

Building:

```
$ make ckati
```

The above command produces a `ckati` binary in the project root.

Testing (best ran in a Ubuntu 18.04 environment):

```
$ make test
$ go test --ckati
$ go test --ckati --ninja
$ go test --ckati --ninja --all
```

The above commands run all cKati and Ninja tests in the `testcases/` directory.
