Tasks experimental
You can define tasks in .mise.toml
files or as standalone shell scripts. These are useful for things like running linters, tests, builders, servers, and other tasks that are specific to a project. Of course, tasks launched with mise will include the mise environment—your tools and env vars defined in .mise.toml
.
Here's my favorite features about mise's task runner:
- building dependencies in parallel—by default with no configuration required
- last-modified checking to avoid rebuilding when there are no changes—requires minimal config
mise watch
to automatically rebuild on changes—no configuration required, but it helps- ability to write tasks as actual bash script files and not inside yml/json/toml strings that lack syntax highlighting and linting/checking support
WARNING
This is an experimental feature. It is not yet stable and will likely change. Some of the docs may not be implemented, may be implemented incorrectly, or the docs may need to be updated. Please give feedback early since while it's experimental it's much easier to change.
