Task Runner

Standard Tasks

Taskfile is the mandatory task runner. Most projects should implement the following standard tasks in Taskfile.yml:

  • generate: Generates code as required (e.g., from Protocol Buffers, mocks).
  • build: Compiles the application binary.
  • setup: Installs required tools and dependencies.
  • validate: Runs lints, unit tests, smoke tests, and the build. Run this before committing.
  • test: Runs unit tests.
  • lint: Runs code linters.
