newconan

newconan creates default project structure that is convenient for developing in IDEs like Clion and Visual Studio.

Requirements

cmake >= 3.14

Installation

$ pip install newconan

Create Project

$ newconan TestExe                      # create exe project
$ newconan TestSharedLibrary -shared    # create shared library project
$ newconan TestStaticLibrary -static    # create static library project

newconan will automatically create the git repository which is .git folder.
assets folder will contains resource files which will be symlink to ${CMAKE_CURRENT_BINARY_DIR}/bin/assets. In this way, your binary can use the relative path ./assets to access the resource files.
cmake folder contains some cmake macros to symlink folder and setup conan.
src folder contains the main source code for your project.
test folder contains all the test cpp files.
.clang-format is the default format that clang-format will use.
.gitignore ignores everything except exisiting folders and files. You can edit this file to add other folders to git.
.gitlab-ci.yml is the default ci configuration for gitlab.
.travis.yml and folder .travis is the default ci configuration for travis.
appveyor.yml is the default ci configuration for appveyor.
build.py will be used by gitlab-ci to build and upload this project as conan recipe for others to use your library.
CMakeLists.txt will define a target for your project and link all the necessary libraries against it. CMakeLists.txt also scans test folder and create corresponding a test target for each cpp file.
CMakeSettings.json is used by Visual Studio. This file will make Visual Studio put the build folder relative to your project rather than some hashed folder which you can't find easily.
conanfile.py defines the library dependencies. conan will download and compile all the required libraries and copy *.dll/*.dylib to ${CMAKE_CURRENT_BINARY_DIR}/bin folder. At the same time, dependent library resource files will also be copied.
README.md shows how to build this project using cmake and conan.

Add dependency

You can add library dependencies to your project by modifying the requires attribute of conanfile.py:

class ProjectNameConan(ConanFile):
    name = "ProjectName"
    version = "1.0.0"
    settings = "os", "compiler", "build_type", "arch"
    requires = ( # Add dependencies here.
        "library1/1.0.0@conan/stable", 
        "library2/2.0.0@conan/testing",
        ...
    )

And then refresh cmake, conan will download and compile all the listed dependencies.
