Search output
Warning
This is an experimental feature subject to breaking changes in future releases.
The conan search provides a --json parameter to generate a file containing the information of the search process.
The output JSON contains a two first level keys:
error:
Trueif the upload completed without error,Falseotherwise.results: A list of the remotes with the packages found. Each element contains:
remote: Name of the remote.
- items: List of the items found in that remote. For each item there will always be a
recipe and optionally also packages when searching them.
- recipe: Document representing the uploaded recipe.
id: Reference, e.g., “OpenSSL/1.0.2n@conan/stable”
- packages: List of elements representing the binary packages found for the recipe.
id: Package ID, e.g., “8018a4df6e7d2b4630a814fa40c81b85b9182d2b”
options: Dictionary of options of the package.
settings: Dictionary with settings of the package.
requires: List of requires of the package.
outdated: Boolean to show whether package is outdated from recipe or not.
Examples:
