Simple dependencies manager for cmake projects in your workspace

Project description

wks: Simple CMake workspace manager

How it works

The basic purpose of wks is to spawn repositories to build a project, then generate a CMakeLists.txt containing add_subdirectory() directives for all of them.

This way, the project can be built using the top-level generated CMakeLists.txt.

Usage

The following commands are available:

  • wks install [repository]: If a repository is given, wks will install it first. Then, wks will scan for dependencies in the wks.yml files (see below) and install them until all requirements are met. This way, it is possible that dependencies of dependencies are installed. Calling wks install without repository argument will cause dependencies scan. The CMakeLists.txt will eventually be generated.
  • wks cmake: This will cause the CMakeLists.txt to be re-generated.
  • wks build [target]: Will create a build and run it. wks will try to create a Ninja build, and fall back to makefiles if it is not available. The [target] you can pass will be given to the build command (make [target] or ninja [target]). The build will be stored in build/ directory.
  • wks pull: Will run a git pull in all repositories. This will then scan for dependencies (equivalent to wks install with no argument) and re-generate the CMakeLists.txt.
  • wks status: Gives insight on the status of your repositories, this will check for:
    • Untracked files
    • Changes without commits
    • Changes commited but not pushed

All sources will be stored in src/, under src/vendor/repository.

Repositories format

All repositories are fetched for GitHub, and repositories can have those formats:

  • vendor/repository
  • vendor/repository#branch
  • vendor/repository@tag

The wks.yml file

The wks.yml can contain the following sections:

  • deps: a list of dependencies that the repository want to be installed
  • optional: a list of optional dependencies, they will not be installed but it ensure that the projects will appear in the proper order in the generated CMakeLists.txt
  • cmakes: if the CMakeLists.txt for this repository is not at the top level (or not unique), you can specify them using this section
  • install: a list of shell command that should be run post install
  • cmake_prefix: a list of directories to be added to CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH

An example is:

deps:
    - rhoban/utils@v1.0
    - rhoban/geometry@v2.0

cmakes:
    - client
    - server
