Yet another library reinventing good old <code>make</code>, implemented in pure
Erlang. This library aims to do one thing right: it runs tasks in
parallel in topological order. Hence it doesn't do globing,
templating, it doesn't provide any DSLs, etc&#x2026;

Basic usage:
</p>

<div class="org-src-container">

<pre class="src src-erlang">-include_lib("task_graph/include/task_graph.hrl").

main() -&gt;
    %% Define tasks:
    Tasks = [#task{ task_id = I
                  , execute = fun(MyId, MyData) -&gt;
                                  io:format("I'm ~p, doing ~p~n", [MyId, MyData])
                              end,
                  , data = something
                  }
             || I &lt;- lists:seq(1, 4)],
    %% Define dependnecies ({A, B} reads as "B depends on A"):
    Edges = [{1, 2}, {1, 3}, {2, 3}, {2, 4}],
    %% Execute graph:
    {ok, _} = task_graph:run_graph(my_graph, {Tasks, Edges}).
</pre>
</div>

<p>
Got lost in the dependencies? It's possible to visualize the graph:
</p>

<div class="org-src-container">

<pre class="src src-erlang">Opts = #{event_handlers =&gt;
             [{task_graph_draw_deps, #{ filename =&gt; "dependencies.dot"
                                      %% You can optionally customize shape and color of vertices:
                                      , color =&gt; fun(#task{}) -&gt;
                                                     green
                                                 end
                                      , shape =&gt; fun(#task{}) -&gt;
                                                     oval
                                                 end
                                      }}]},
{ok, _} = task_graph:run_graph(my_graph, Opts, {Tasks, Edges}).
</pre>
</div>

Render the resulting file using graphviz:
