Conan

---

Conan is a package manager for C/C++. In this repository, we demonstrate the use of Conan.

Infrastructure

---

With the docker-compose.yaml we spawn the following containers:

• artifactory: An Artifactory instance, in which we create a conan-test repository.
• producer: A container containing conan, in which we'll produce packages
• consumer: Same container, in which we'll consume the packages.

Usage

1. Run the setup-artifactory.sh script. This will run the compose file plus some required setup.
2. Browse to the Artifactory web page. Change the password to YoavKlein3 and create a repo named conan-test.
3. Run the init.sh to setup our repo as a remote in both producer and consumer containers.

Examples

---

We want to demonstrate the following features:

1. Consume binary package
2. Produce a binary package and consume it.
3. Produce a package recipe with sources bundled, and then consume and build it in the consumer.
4. Produce a package recipe (with source() method), and then consume and build it in the consumer.

Consume a binary package

For this, we use the use_poco_example. In this example, we consume the Poco library.

Produce a binary package and consume it

For this, we use the produce/mymath - in which we produce a binary package and upload it to Artifactory. Then, we use the consume/use-mymath in the consumer to consume the package from Artifactory.

Produce a package recipe with sources bundled, and then consume and build in consumer

For this, we also use the produce/mymath library. In this case, we don't build a binary package, only export the package recipe and upload it. Then, we use consume/use-mymath in the same way, just passing the --build flag to conan install to build the library from sources.

Produce a package recipe without sources

For this, we'll use the produce/hello-package example. In this example, we use the hello demo repo. We export the recipe, and upload it to Artifactory. Then, we consume the package with conan install .. --build to build the recipe. This case is different from the previous, since in this case we pull the sources from git, the sources are not present in the package in Artifactory.
