我最近在网上找到了这篇文章，它解释了如何设置一个
make help它解析：
install: ## Install npm dependencies for the api, admin, and frontend apps
@echo "Installing Node dependencies"
@npm install
install-dev: install ## Install dependencies and prepared development configuration
@./node_modules/.bin/selenium-standalone install
@cp -n ./config/development.js-dist ./config/development.js | true
run-frontend-dev: webpack.PID ## Run the frontend and admin apps in dev (using webpack-dev-server)
进入：
install Install npm dependencies for the api, admin, and frontend apps
install-dev Install dependencies and prepared development configuration
run-frontend-dev Run the frontend and admin apps in dev (using webpack-dev-server)
但由于某种原因我无法让它工作（至少在 OSX 上）。有了这个目标：
help: ## Show the help prompt.
@grep -E '^[a-zA-Z_-]+:.*?## .*$$' $(MAKEFILE_LIST) | sort | awk 'BEGIN {FS = ":.*?## "}; {printf "\033[36m%-30s\033[0m %s\n", $$1, $$2}'
当我跑步时：
make help
我刚刚得到：
$ make help
make: Nothing to be done for `help'.
我也尝试了文章中评论中的所有不同解决方案，但似乎没有任何效果。我做错了什么？
此外，脚本的一个变体是什么，允许将注释放置在目标之前而不是之后的行上。像这样：
# Build the source files with Babel.
build: $(shell find lib)
@rm -rf build
@mkdir -p build
@$(babel) lib $(babel_options)
# Seed the database with fake data.
db-fake:
@$(run) node bin/run-sql fake
这是有问题的完整 Makefile：

shorthand-tests = $(patsubst test/routes/%.js,test-%,$(tests))

.PHONY: test

column
将文本放入列中，但您可以使用 printf 在 awk 中完成此操作（如果您愿意，还可以添加控制台代码来对输出进行着色）；使用
column的优点是它会自动计算出列宽。您可以用同样的方式将其插入到 Makefile 中：
.PHONY: help
# Show this help.
help:
@awk '/^#/{c=substr($$0,3);next}c&&/^[[:alpha:]][[:alnum:]_-]+:/{print substr($$1,1,index($$1,":")),c}1{c=0}' $(MAKEFILE_LIST) | column -s: -t
help
规则来实际提取和打印消息。假设您正在谈论的文章是http://marmelab.com/blog/2016/02/29/auto-documented-makefile.html，这就是您正在寻找的内容。
.PHONY: help
help:
@grep -E '^[a-zA-Z_-]+:.*?## .*$$' $(MAKEFILE_LIST) | sort | awk 'BEGIN {FS = ":.*?## "}; {printf "\033[36m%-30s\033[0m %s\n", $$1, $$2}'
命令方法之前的文档可能是可行的，但需要更多的工作。大多数 UNIX 命令都是逐行工作的，因此使用本文中指定的注释会更容易。
risi的答案，并对它做了一些改进。通过此更改，Makefile 中以 ## 开头的任何注释都将传递到帮助文本中，而 make 目标之前的 ## 注释将呈现为该目标的帮助。
# this line does not go into help
##
## This is the help header 1
## This is the help header 2
##
# The above line is ##<SPACE><SPACE> which inserts a line break
.PHONEY: help
## Print this help
help:
@awk '/^## / \
{ if (c) {print c}; c=substr($$0, 4); next } \
c && /^[[:alpha:]][[:alnum:]_0]+:/ \
{print substr($$0, 1, index($$0,":")), "\t", c; c=0} \
END { print c }' $(MAKEFILE_LIST)
# This target will not appear in help
target0:
@action 0
## Description 1
target1:
@action 1
## Description 2
target2: target1
@action 2
##
## This can be a description of another subsection
##
## Description 3
target3:
@action 3
##
## Some text to finish up the help.
##
在此 Makefile 上运行“make help”将生成：
This is the help header 1
This is the help header 2
help: Print this help
target1: Description 1
target2: Description 2
This can be a description of another subsection
target3: Description 3
Some text to finish up the help.
无法像 Risi 的解决方案一样使用“列”，因为它会干扰与目标无关的帮助输出。
