## Build Scripts
The scripts described here
Building MELPA is all based around using the `Makefile` included in
the root repository directory. Described below are the actions that
accepted by the `Makefile`.
* `buildpkg` -- Create an archive of the package(s) passed as
arguments to the script. Built packages are put in the `packages/`
folder with version corresponding to the newest HEAD revision
available; given according to the `%Y%m%d` format.
* `all` -- Builds all packages under the `recipes/` directory and compiles the `index.html` file for the [melpa] website.
* `melpa` -- All the logic for generating everything in the repository
based on the recipe files. By default build all packages listed under
`recipes/`, and compile the `index.html` file for the [melpa] website.
* `recipes/<NAME>` -- Build individual recipe `<NAME>`. Built packages
are put in the `packages/` folder with version corresponding to the
newest HEAD revision available; given according to the `%Y%m%d`
format.
The following arguments are accepted:
* `json` -- build all JSON files.
* `archive.json` -- construct the `archive.json` file that will contain a JSON object of all compiled packages.
* `recipes.json` -- construct the `recipes.json` file containing a JSON object of all packages available for building.
* `clean` -- clean everything.
* `html` -- build `index.html`.
* `clean-working` -- remove all repositories that have been checked out to the `working/` directory.
* `clean-packages` -- remove all compiled packages from the `packages` directory.
* `clean-json` -- remove all JSON files.
clear : clean out the `packages/` directory
build : build all packages in `pkglist`
index : build the `index.html` file
validate :naively validate that the correct number of packages were built.
Note that these scripts require an Emacs with `package.el` installed,
such as Emacs 24. If you have an older version of Emacs, you can get a
suitable `package.el` [here](http://bit.ly/pkg-el23).
