Hey folks — Is there dependencies to running make readme/build?
I’m getting this regarding gomplate — and trying make go/install didn’t do the trick either.
 
Try make readme/init
 
Then run make readme/rebuild

terraform-aws-ecs-codepipeline (branch:master) » make readme/init 
README.yaml already exists!
terraform-aws-ecs-codepipeline (branch:master) » make readme/rebuild 
make[1]: ** No rule to make target `readme/rebuild’. Stop.
make: ** [readme/rebuild] Error 2
terraform-aws-ecs-codepipeline (branch:master) » make readme/build 
Package terraform-docs already installed
make: gomplate: No such file or directory
make: ** [readme/build] Error 1
 
Ah! Misspoke. Try: make readme/deps
 
Ah good stuff @Erik Osterman (Cloud Posse) — that did the trick I believe. I also did a manual brew install gomplate prior to running readme/deps, but either way I think they were doing the same thing.
Side note — readme/deps doesn’t come up when doing a make help. Probably a bug?
 
Ya…. it’s been affecting a lot of contributors too
 
gotta get this fixed
 
Hey Erik, any more gotchas I should look out for here. I have attempting make readme/deps and make readme/build and I get the same error as @Matt Gowie
I have even tried on older repos where I have contributed and was able to update the README. I’ll keep looking but was wondering if I am missing a step
 
Oh, don’t worry any more about updating it
 
we can update it using our github action.
 
thanks though!
 
just ping @Maxim Mironenko (Cloud Posse) when the PR is ready (though he is on vacation this week)
 
Curious, what are you using now? I was generating a new module and was looking to use a similar pattern
 
Oh we’re still using it!
 
 
make readme will never go away! 
 
it’s just now we have a github action that calls it for us when we run /rebuild-readme

Very nice! I got it working on myside as well. Had to install gomplate; thought I had it installed locally already.
