path reference
Test a package from a test_package folder.
positional arguments:
path Path to a test_package folder containing a
conanfile.py
reference Provide a package reference to test
options:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
-v [V] Level of detail of the output. Valid options from less
verbose to more verbose: -vquiet, -verror, -vwarning,
-vnotice, -vstatus, -v or -vverbose, -vv or -vdebug,
-vvv or -vtrace
-f FORMAT, --format FORMAT
Select the output format: json
-b BUILD, --build BUILD
Optional, specify which packages to build from source.
Combining multiple '--build' options on one command
line is allowed. Possible values: --build="*" Force
build from source for all packages. --build=never
Disallow build for all packages, use binary packages
or fail if a binary package is not found, it cannot be
combined with other '--build' options. --build=missing
Build packages from source whose binary package is not
found. --build=cascade Build packages from source that
have at least one dependency being built from source.
--build=[pattern] Build packages from source whose
package reference matches the pattern. The pattern
uses 'fnmatch' style wildcards. --build=~[pattern]
Excluded packages, which will not be built from the
source, whose package reference matches the pattern.
The pattern uses 'fnmatch' style wildcards.
--build=missing:[pattern] Build from source if a
compatible binary does not exist, only for packages
matching pattern.
-r REMOTE, --remote REMOTE
Look in the specified remote or remotes server
-nr, --no-remote Do not use remote, resolve exclusively in the cache
-u, --update Will check the remote and in case a newer version
and/or revision of the dependencies exists there, it
will install those in the local cache. When using
version ranges, it will install the latest version
that satisfies the range. Also, if using revisions, it
will update to the latest revision for the resolved
version range.
-pr PROFILE, --profile PROFILE
Apply the specified profile. By default, or if
specifying -pr:h (--profile:host), it applies to the
host context. Use -pr:b (--profile:build) to specify
the build context, or -pr:a (--profile:all) to specify
both contexts at once
-pr:b PROFILE_BUILD, --profile:build PROFILE_BUILD
-pr:h PROFILE_HOST, --profile:host PROFILE_HOST
-pr:a PROFILE_ALL, --profile:all PROFILE_ALL
-o OPTIONS, --options OPTIONS
Apply the specified options. By default, or if
specifying -o:h (--options:host), it applies to the
host context. Use -o:b (--options:build) to specify
the build context, or -o:a (--options:all) to specify
both contexts at once. Example: -o pkg:with_qt=true
-o:b OPTIONS_BUILD, --options:build OPTIONS_BUILD
-o:h OPTIONS_HOST, --options:host OPTIONS_HOST
-o:a OPTIONS_ALL, --options:all OPTIONS_ALL
-s SETTINGS, --settings SETTINGS
Apply the specified settings. By default, or if
specifying -s:h (--settings:host), it applies to the
host context. Use -s:b (--settings:build) to specify
the build context, or -s:a (--settings:all) to specify
both contexts at once. Example: -s compiler=gcc
-s:b SETTINGS_BUILD, --settings:build SETTINGS_BUILD
-s:h SETTINGS_HOST, --settings:host SETTINGS_HOST
-s:a SETTINGS_ALL, --settings:all SETTINGS_ALL
-c CONF, --conf CONF Apply the specified conf. By default, or if specifying
-c:h (--conf:host), it applies to the host context.
Use -c:b (--conf:build) to specify the build context,
or -c:a (--conf:all) to specify both contexts at once.
Example: -c tools.cmake.cmaketoolchain:generator=Xcode
-c:b CONF_BUILD, --conf:build CONF_BUILD
-c:h CONF_HOST, --conf:host CONF_HOST
-c:a CONF_ALL, --conf:all CONF_ALL
-l LOCKFILE, --lockfile LOCKFILE
Path to a lockfile. Use --lockfile="" to avoid
automatic use of existing 'conan.lock' file
--lockfile-partial Do not raise an error if some dependency is not found
in lockfile
--lockfile-out LOCKFILE_OUT
Filename of the updated lockfile
--lockfile-packages Lock package-id and package-revision information
--lockfile-clean Remove unused entries from the lockfile
--lockfile-overrides LOCKFILE_OVERRIDES
Overwrite lockfile overrides
The conan test command uses the test_package folder specified in path to tests the package reference specified in reference.
