This package provides a BinDeps.jl-compatible CMakeProcess class for automatically building CMake dependencies.
A modern version of CMake is installed using the CMake.jl package; you can use
that package instead if you just want to run cmake by itself without using BinDeps.
julia> Pkg.add("CMakeWrapper")
You can declare a CMakeProcess similarly to the way you would use the Autotools provider in BinDeps.jl. In your deps/build.jl file, this would look like:
provides(Sources,
URI(source_url),
dependency_name)
provides(BuildProcess, CMakeProcess(),
dependency_name)
where source_url and dependency_name are set elsewhere in your build.jl.
You can also pass raw cmake options directly with the cmake_args flag:
provides(BuildProcess, CMakeProcess(cmake_args=["-DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug"]),
dependency_name)
If the high-level provider doesn't work for you, you can also use the lower-level CMakeBuild, analogous to the AutotoolsDependency in BinDeps.jl:
CMakeBuild(srcdir=source_dir, # where the CMakeLists.txt resides in your source
builddir=build_dir, # where the cmake build outputs should go
prefix=install_prefix, # desired install prefix
libtarget=[library_name], # name of the library being built
installed_libpath=[path_to_intalled_library], # expected installed library path
cmake_args=[], # additional cmake arguments
targetname="install") # build target to run (default: "install")
