Conan build helper for projects that use Boost.Build
Add the necessary conan remote:
$ conan remote add grisumbras https://api.bintray.com/conan/grisumbras/conanInside your conanfile.py use python_requires to install and import the
package:
class MyConan(ConanFile):
python_requires = "b2-helper/[>=0.8.0]@grisumbras/stable"The simplest way to use the package is via the mixin class:
class MyConan(ConanFile):
python_requires = "b2-helper/[>=0.8.0]@grisumbras/stable"
python_requires_extend = "b2-helper.Mixin"The mixin provides default implementations for methods build, package
and test. In order for it to work without any customization, project’s
jamroot file should be in conanfile.source_folder and the project should
require no configuration beyond toolset initialization. If customization is
required, the ConanFile subclass should override method b2_setup_builder:
class MyConan(ConanFile):
python_requires_extend = "b2-helper.Mixin"
def b2_setup_builder(self, builder):
builder.source_folder = "src"
builder.build_folder = "build"
builder.options.debug_building = True
builder.properties.runtime_link = "static"
return builderIf you need to build specific targets, you can sepcify them via
b2_build_targets. The value of the variable can be any collection or string
(in case you want to only build one target):
class MyConan1(ConanFile):
python_requires_extend = "b2-helper.Mixin"
b2_build_targets = "foo"
class MyConan2(ConanFile):
python_requires_extend = "b2-helper.Mixin"
b2_build_targets = "foo", "bar"The helper can be used by itself pretty much the same way as standard build helpers.
class MyConan(ConanFile):
def build(self):
builder = b2.B2(self)
builder.source_folder = "src"
builder.build_folder = "build"
builder.options.debug_building = True
builder.properties.runtime_link = "static"
builder.configure()
builder.build()
builder.test()
builder.install()By default the helper creates a project-config.jam which initializes modules
and loads files created by generator. Some projects prefer to create that file
themselves via a bootstrap script. In order to support such use cases the
helper provides mutable property project_config and an attribute include
that holds a list of jamfiles to be included by configuration module.
class MyConan(ConanFile):
def b2_setup_builder(self, builder)
builder.project_config = os.path.join(self.build_folder, "helper.jam")
builder.include.append(self.bootstrap())
return builder-
