This example dowloads the Cake bootstrapper and executes a simple build script. The bootstrapper is used to bootstrap Cake in a simple way and is not in required in any way to execute build scripts. If you prefer to invoke the Cake executable yourself, take a look at the command line usage.

This example is also available on our homepage: http://cakebuild.net/docs/tutorials/setting-up-a-new-project

The bootstrapper is used to download Cake and the tools required by the build script.

Invoke-WebRequest http://cakebuild.net/download/bootstrapper/windows -OutFile build.ps1

curl -Lsfo build.sh http://cakebuild.net/download/bootstrapper/linux

curl -Lsfo build.sh http://cakebuild.net/download/bootstrapper/osx

Add a cake script called build.cake to the same location as the bootstrapper script that you downloaded.

var target = Argument("target", "Default");

Task("Default")
  .Does(() =>
{
  Information("Hello World!");
});

RunTarget(target);

# Execute the bootstrapper script.
./build.ps1

# Adjust the permissions for the bootstrapper script.
chmod +x build.sh

# Execute the bootstrapper script.
./build.sh
