Various utilities to help develop C++/CMake projects.
Installation
-
Via PyPI:
pip install cmake-common
-
As a submodule:
git submodule add https://github.com/egor-tensin/cmake-common.git
All the scripts provided by the PyPI package are thin wrappers around the
project
package modules:Script Module boost-download python3 -m project.boost.download
boost-build python3 -m project.boost.build
cmake-build python3 -m project.cmake.build
ci-boost python3 -m project.ci.boost
ci-cmake python3 -m project.ci.cmake
Toolsets
Supported platform/build system/compiler combinations include, but are not limited to:
Platform | Build system | Compiler |
---|---|---|
Linux | make | Clang |
GCC | ||
MinGW-w64 | ||
Windows | make [1] | Clang [2] |
MinGW-w64 | ||
msbuild | MSVC | |
Cygwin | make | Clang |
GCC | ||
MinGW-w64 |
- Both GNU make and MinGW mingw32-make.
- clang-cl is supported by Boost 1.69.0 or higher only.
All of those are verified continuously by the Boost (toolsets) and Examples (toolsets) workflows.
For a complete list of possible --toolset
parameter values, pass the
--help-toolsets
flag to either boost-build
or cmake-build
.
Usage
Boost
Download & build the Boost libraries in a cross-platform way.
$ boost-download 1.72.0
...
$ boost-build -- boost_1_72_0/ --with-filesystem --with-program_options
...
Pass the --help
flag to view detailed usage information.
CMake project
Build (and optionally, install) a CMake project.
$ cmake-build --configuration Release --install path/to/somewhere --boost path/to/boost -- examples/simple
...
$ ./path/to/somewhere/bin/foo
foo
Pass the --help
flag to view detailed usage information.
common.cmake
Use in a project by putting
include(path/to/common.cmake)
in CMakeLists.txt.
This file aids in quick-and-dirty development by
- linking everything (including the runtime) statically by default,
- setting some useful compilation options (enables warnings, defines useful Windows-specific macros, strips debug symbols in release builds, etc.).
Everything is optional (use the CC_*
CMake options to opt out).
CI
Utility scripts ci-boost
and ci-cmake
allow building Boost and CMake
projects on multiple CI systems.
They work by calling the generic scripts from above, auto-filling some
parameters from environment variables.

and ci-cmake
into a CI
workflow, see docs/ci.md.
Tools
- project-clang-format.py —
clang-format
all C/C++ files in the project. - ctest-driver.py — wrap an executable for testing with CTest;
cross-platform
grep
.
Examples
I use this in all of my C++/CMake projects, e.g. aes-tools and math-server.
