Empty Target#

The empty target is a dummy target, mainly used for testing purposes. In contrast to the Blackhole Target, the empty target does not provide an input mapping and supports all build phases, but the target is never dirty. This means that the target will only be executed when the --force option is specified.

Example#

  dummy:
    kind: empty

Fields#

  • kind (mandatory) (type: string): empty

  • description (optional) (type: string): Optional descriptive text of the build target
