9424 :: Stadard way to call a nimscript

• halloleo (orginal) [2022-08-31T07:31:11+02:00] view original

  In a two year old project I have some tasks in a nimscript file config.nims. I cannot recall what's the standard way to call this file.

  I noticed

  nim <TASKNAME> config.nims

  does execute the task <TASKNAME>, but is there a shorter way? There must be a reason why I called the file config.nims...

  nim e config.nims should work, also iirc config.nims could be used to replace nim.cfg so it gets executed when compiling (the task won't, but top-level instructions will)

  OK, thanks @stisa.

  So the top level definitions (like, in my case, compiling to JavaScript) are taken from config.nims

  Good to know.
