conan workspace
$ conan workspace [-h] {install} ...
Manages a workspace (a set of packages consumed from the user workspace that belongs to the same project).
Use this command to manage a Conan workspace, use the subcommand ‘install’ to create the workspace from a file.
positional arguments:
{install} sub-command help
install same as a "conan install" command but using the workspace data
from the file. If no file is provided, it will look for a file
named "conanws.yml"
optional arguments:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
conan workspace install
$ conan workspace install [-h] [-b [BUILD]] [-r REMOTE] [-u] [-l [LOCKFILE]]
[-e ENV_HOST] [-e:b ENV_BUILD] [-e:h ENV_HOST]
[-o OPTIONS_HOST] [-o:b OPTIONS_BUILD] [-o:h OPTIONS_HOST]
[-pr PROFILE_HOST] [-pr:b PROFILE_BUILD]
[-pr:h PROFILE_HOST] [-s SETTINGS_HOST]
[-s:b SETTINGS_BUILD] [-s:h SETTINGS_HOST]
[-if INSTALL_FOLDER]
path
positional arguments:
path path to workspace definition file (it will look for a "conanws.yml"
inside if a directory is given)
optional arguments:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
-b [BUILD], --build [BUILD]
Optional, use it to choose if you want to build from sources:
--build Build all from sources, do not use binary packages.
--build=never Never build, use binary packages or fail if a binary
package is not found. --build=missing Build from code if a binary
package is not found. --build=cascade Will build from code all the
nodes with some dependency being built (for any reason). Can be
used together with any other build policy. Useful to make sure that
any new change introduced in a dependency is incorporated by
building again the package. --build=outdated Build from code if the
binary is not built with the current recipe or when missing a
binary package. --build=[pattern] Build always these packages from
source, but never build the others. Allows multiple --build
parameters. 'pattern' is a fnmatch file pattern of a package
reference. Default behavior: If you don't specify anything, it will
be similar to '--build=never', but package recipes can override it
with their 'build_policy' attribute in the conanfile.py.
-r REMOTE, --remote REMOTE
Look in the specified remote server
-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.
-l [LOCKFILE], --lockfile [LOCKFILE]
Path to a lockfile or folder containing 'conan.lock' file. Lockfile
can be updated if packages change
-e ENV_HOST, --env ENV_HOST
Environment variables that will be set during the package build
(host machine). e.g.: -e CXX=/usr/bin/clang++
-e:b ENV_BUILD, --env:build ENV_BUILD
Environment variables that will be set during the package build
(build machine). e.g.: -e CXX=/usr/bin/clang++
-e:h ENV_HOST, --env:host ENV_HOST
Environment variables that will be set during the package build
(host machine). e.g.: -e CXX=/usr/bin/clang++
-o OPTIONS_HOST, --options OPTIONS_HOST
Define options values (host machine), e.g.: -o Pkg:with_qt=true
-o:b OPTIONS_BUILD, --options:build OPTIONS_BUILD
Define options values (build machine), e.g.: -o Pkg:with_qt=true
-o:h OPTIONS_HOST, --options:host OPTIONS_HOST
Define options values (host machine), e.g.: -o Pkg:with_qt=true
-pr PROFILE_HOST, --profile PROFILE_HOST
Apply the specified profile to the host machine
-pr:b PROFILE_BUILD, --profile:build PROFILE_BUILD
Apply the specified profile to the build machine
-pr:h PROFILE_HOST, --profile:host PROFILE_HOST
Apply the specified profile to the host machine
-s SETTINGS_HOST, --settings SETTINGS_HOST
Settings to build the package, overwriting the defaults (host
machine). e.g.: -s compiler=gcc
-s:b SETTINGS_BUILD, --settings:build SETTINGS_BUILD
Settings to build the package, overwriting the defaults (build
machine). e.g.: -s compiler=gcc
-s:h SETTINGS_HOST, --settings:host SETTINGS_HOST
Settings to build the package, overwriting the defaults (host
machine). e.g.: -s compiler=gcc
-if INSTALL_FOLDER, --install-folder INSTALL_FOLDER
Folder where the workspace files will be created (default to
current working directory)
Note that these arguments, like settings
and options
mostly apply to the dependencies,
but those packages that are defined as editable in the workspace are in the user space.
Those packages won’t be built by the command (even with --build
arguments), as they are
built locally. It is the responsibility of the editables layout to match the settings (typically
parameterizing the layout with settings
and options
)
